MCQ (Single Correct) +4 −1

How many plant quarantine stations at different international airports, seaports and land frontiers are existing in India at present?

वर्तमान में भारत में विभिन्न अंतरराष्ट्रीय हवाई अड्डों, समुद्री बंदरगाहों और भूमि सीमाओं पर कितने पादप संगरोध स्टेशन (Plant quarantine stations) मौजूद हैं?

21 21 52 52 73 73 Correct 89 89

Plant quarantine infrastructure in India:

Under the Directorate of Plant Protection, Quarantine and Storage (DPPQ&S, Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare), India enforces the Destructive Insects and Pests Act (DIP Act, 1914) and Plant Quarantine (Regulation of Import into India) Order, 2003.
India operates a total network of 73 Plant Quarantine Stations functioning across international seaports (34), international airports (22), and land custom frontiers / railway stations (17) to intercept exotic invasive pests and pathogens.

Hence, there are 73 plant quarantine stations in India.

भारत में पादप संगरोध (Plant Quarantine) का ढांचा:

पादप संरक्षण, संगरोध एवं भंडारण निदेशालय (DPPQ&S) के अंतर्गत विनाशकारी कीट एवं पीड़क अधिनियम (DIP Act, 1914) लागू किया जाता है।
विदेशी आक्रामक कीटों और रोगों के प्रवेश को रोकने हेतु भारत में अंतरराष्ट्रीय समुद्री पत्तनों, हवाई अड्डों और भूमि सीमाओं पर कुल 73 पादप संगरोध स्टेशन (Plant Quarantine Stations) स्थापित हैं।

अतः सही उत्तर 73 है।
