QUESTION 21

Which ordered pair correctly answers both questions about topic 14: (1) Which airport had an expansion master plan approved by NITI Aayog? (2) Which body approved the airport expansion master plan?

विषय 14 के दोनों प्रश्नों के क्रमवार सही उत्तर कौन-सी जोड़ी में हैं: (1) किस हवाई अड्डे की विस्तार मास्टर योजना को नीति आयोग की स्वीकृति मिली? (2) हवाई अड्डे की विस्तार मास्टर योजना किस निकाय ने मंजूर की?
A. One Day International — Airports Authority of IndiaB. Coimbatore International Airport — NITI AayogC. WCO SAFE Framework — NITI AayogD. Coimbatore International Airport — National Investigation Agency
Show answer & explanation
Answer: B
The correct ordered pair is Coimbatore International Airport followed by NITI Aayog. The first half answers “Which airport had an expansion master plan approved by NITI Aayog?” and the second half answers “Which body approved the airport expansion master plan?” An option with only one correct half is still wrong. The order in the question matters, and swapping the two facts changes the answer. Coimbatore Airport Expansion Master Plan Receives NITI Aayog Approval Testbook reported that the expansion master plan for Coimbatore International Airport had received NITI Aayog approval. The project was awaiting Cabinet approval. Approximately 627 acres of land had been handed over to the Airports Authority of India. The proposed new terminal would have a capacity of approximately: 12 million passengers The estimated terminal cost was: ₹2,132 crore Environmental-clearance procedures were also underway. Why Is Airport Expansion Important? Airport infrastructure supports: Passenger connectivity Tourism Business travel Cargo movement Regional economic activity Exam Points Airport → Coimbatore State → Tamil Nadu Proposed terminal capacity → 12 million passengers Estimated cost → ₹2,132 crore Note: The reported approval concerned the master plan; it should not be confused with completion of the expansion project. This is a source-based quiz: estimates, reported snapshots, proposals, pending approvals and scheduled events should retain those qualifiers. In particular, a proposed investment does not establish completed spending, and an announced event does not establish that distribution has already happened. Use the surrounding context to distinguish the tested fact from nearby numbers and institutions.
