Correct Answerसही उत्तर
B. 2013B. 2013
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer according to the source is 2013.
The book states that the Serum Institute of India launched the oral polio vaccine in 2013.
The explanation further says that the Serum Institute of India was founded in 1966 by Dr.
Cyrus Poonawalla.
According to the source, its aim was to manufacture life-saving immuno-biologicals that were in shortage in the country and were being imported at high prices.
Therefore the complete source-supported revision chain is: Serum Institute of India → founded in 1966 → Dr.
Cyrus Poonawalla → aim of manufacturing life-saving immuno-biologicals → products were in shortage and imported at high prices according to source → oral polio vaccine launched in 2013 according to the book.
The years 2012, 2014 and 2011 are distractors.
Because the question asks specifically about the source's claimed launch year, the answer has been preserved as printed rather than expanded or independently reinterpreted.
Quick revision: Serum Institute of India → 1966 foundation → Dr.
Cyrus Poonawalla; oral polio vaccine → 2013 according to source.
Therefore option (b) is correct.
स्रोत के अनुसार सही उत्तर 2013 है। Book बताती है कि Serum Institute of India ने oral polio vaccine को 2013 में launch किया था। Explanation आगे कहती है कि Serum Institute of India की स्थापना 1966 में Dr. Cyrus Poonawalla ने की थी। Source के अनुसार इसका उद्देश्य life-saving immuno-biologicals का manufacturing करना था, जिनकी देश में कमी थी और जिन्हें high prices पर import किया जाता था। इसलिए complete source-supported revision chain है: Serum Institute of India → Founded in 1966 → Dr. Cyrus Poonawalla → Life-saving Immuno-biologicals का Manufacturing → Source के अनुसार देश में Shortage और High-priced Imports → Oral Polio Vaccine Launch = 2013। 2012, 2014 और 2011 distractors हैं। क्योंकि question specifically source में दिए launch year के बारे में है, printed information को उसी रूप में preserve किया गया है। Quick revision: Serum Institute = 1966, Cyrus Poonawalla; Oral Polio Vaccine = 2013 according to source। इसलिए विकल्प (b) सही है।
