_________________ means any trade or occupation or any subject field in engineering or technology or any vocational course which the Central Government, after consultation with the Central Apprenticeship Council, may, by notification in the Official Gazette, specify as a designated trade for the purposes of Apprentices Act, 1961.
Designated trade
Correct AnswerApprenticeship training
Incorrect AnswerBoth (A) & (B)
Incorrect AnswerNone of the above.
Incorrect AnswerExplanation:
- The statement defines a term related to the Apprentices Act, 1961. It is about specifying a particular trade or occupation in engineering, technology, or vocational fields.
- Option 1: Designated trade
- This option refers to trades that are officially specified by the Central Government, in agreement with the Central Apprenticeship Council, as per the Act.
- This aligns perfectly with the statement as it mentions the official process of notification.
- Option 2: Apprenticeship training
- This involves the system of training individuals in specific trades, which is broader and not the exact term described in the statement.
- It does not specifically involve the notification by the Central Government as per the statement.
- Option 3: Both (A) & (B)
- This implies both options are valid, but only "Designated trade" captures the essence of the provided statement accurately.
- Option 4: None of the above
- This is incorrect because "Designated trade" is a direct match for the term in the statement.
Correct Answer: Option 1: Designated trade
