(b) Only two
Vikram-1, named after the father of India’s space programme, Vikram Sarabhai, is a multi-stage launch vehicle with a capacity to place around 300 kg of payloads in low-earth orbit. (Statement 1 is incorrect)
It has been built by Hyderabad-based Skyroot Aerospace, a space startup. It is an all-carbon-fibre-bodied rocket that can place multiple satellites into orbit.
Being a solid-fuel rocket and using relatively simpler technologies would mean that launching this vehicle would require minimal infrastructure and that the rocket could be assembled and launched within 24 hours from any site.

(b) UNEP
According to the Food Waste Index Report 2024, households across the globe wasted over one billion meals a day in 2022. The report defines “food waste” as “food and the associated inedible parts removed from the human food supply chain”.
‘‘Food loss” is defined as “all the crop and livestock human-edible commodity quantities that, directly or indirectly, completely exit the post-harvest/slaughter production/supply chain up to, and excluding, the retail level”.

(c) All three
It is a network of global laboratories with expertise in human, animal and environmental coronavirus surveillance. It will identify and monitor potentially novel coronaviruses that could emerge shortly.
The network will now have animal health and environmental surveillance and timely risk assessment to feed WHO policies and protective measures.
In low- and middle-income countries, CoViNet will support the building of more laboratories to monitor MERS-CoV and novel coronaviruses of public health importance.
Data generated through CoViNet’s efforts will guide the work of WHO’s Technical Advisory Groups on Viral Evolution (TAG-VE) and Vaccine Composition (TAG-CO-VAC) and others, ensuring global health policies and tools are based on the latest scientific information.
It currently comprises 36 laboratories from 21 countries in all six WHO regions.
The Council of Scientific and Industrial Research-National Environmental Engineering Research Institute, the Indian Council of Medical Research-National Institute of Virology in Pune, and the Translational Health Science and Technology Institute are part of this network are the three laboratories in India.

(a) Mudumalai Tiger Reserve
Moyar Valley, also known as Maayar Valley, stretches approximately 85 kilometers from Gudalur through the core area of the Mudumalai Tiger Reserve within the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve in Tamil Nadu.
The Gyps vultures, including the White-rumped Vulture (Gyps bengalensis), Indian Vulture (G. indicus), and Slender-billed Vulture (G. tenuirostris), have faced rapid population declines since the mid-1990s in India.
These vultures are endemic to South Asia and play a crucial role in the ecosystem by scavenging carcasses.
The primary cause of their decline was poisoning due to the widespread veterinary use of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) diclofenac in cattle.
As a result, all three species were listed as “Critically Endangered” on the IUCN Red List
