Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Concept
A chronological-order question is solved by anchoring each item to its year of establishment / launch and then sorting from earliest to latest. The correct sequence is the one whose order matches the rising timeline; do not rely on alphabetical or option order.
Application
Fix the founding year of each institution of educational communication:
Institution | Year | Note |
|---|---|---|
AIR (All India Radio / Akashvani) | 1936 | National public-service radio (renamed AIR in 1936). |
UGC Countrywide Classroom | 1984 | UGC's educational TV programme on Doordarshan. |
CEC (Consortium for Educational Communication) | 1993 | UGC nodal agency coordinating educational media. |
Gyan Vani | 2001 | IGNOU's educational FM radio network. |
Sorting these years in increasing order gives:
AIR — 1936 (earliest)
UGC Countrywide Classroom — 1984
CEC — 1993
Gyan Vani — 2001 (latest)
Mapping back to the labels (A = AIR, B = CEC, C = Countrywide Classroom, D = Gyan Vani), the timeline reads A, C, B, D.
Cross-check
Verify the two easy boundaries: AIR (1936) is by far the oldest, so any sequence not starting with AIR is wrong; Gyan Vani (2001) is the newest, so it must come last. Only A, C, B, D satisfies both ends, and CEC (1993) correctly follows the Countrywide Classroom (1984) it was created to coordinate.
