Ideas and actions rarely get wind together to end decades-old social inequities. Visions can become virtuies if they are accompanied by a determination to create an equitable society. Three years ago, Prime Minister Narendra Modi decided to offload the past that was holding back the 1.3 crore citizens of Jammu and Kashmir from realizing their potential. He rolled out the process to build a new and vibrant Union Territory. Jammu and Kashmir, since then, is walking the PM’s talk and has travelled quite a distance to re-arrange priorities of development, initiate deep reforms in governance, curb corruption, and realise the dreams of youth. In this Amrit Kaal, we are the new destination, not just for tourists but for businesses as well.
In 2018-19, only 9,229 projects were completed in a year. This has increased to 50,627 in the financial year 2021-22. Rs 1 lakh crore is being spent to improve road connectivity and build tunnels. Social sector spending has increased by 43.83 per cent and the economic sector by 45.60 per cent in the last three years. 
More than 200 public services have been made available online to receive real-time feedback from citizens. Providing houses to people in rural areas, developing roads, putting in place primary health facilities and safe drinking water services, creating more avenues for education, employment, and agriculture, attracting private investment and bridging gaps between government delivery mechanisms and people’s expectations were some of the tasks we completed by building trust between the administration and the people. Structural and institutional changes like ending the 150-year-old Darbar Move brought in another layer of transparency and improvement in governance. It also saved about Rs 400 crore annual expenditure that used to be incurred in shifting logistics from Srinagar to Jammu and back. It has also prevented the loss of at least one working month every year. 
Projects worth Rs 58,477 crore under the Prime Minister’s Development Package have picked up pace and direction after impediments and bottlenecks that _________ (a) growth — land acquisition, forest clearances, utility shifting and court cases — were removed. Dreams and aspirations are ________________ (b)of the common man in J&K, which has encouraged us to work harder.

Directions: Read the passage and answer the question that follow.

The stunning news that the searing and record breaking heat wave in China has compelled Apple and Toyota to suspend production to save power is direly symptomatic of devastating weather conditions that could impact economies. The fear that it could last for the next “two to three months easily” is frightfully real primarily because it is quite dire. Conditions have become still more insufferable as the nation currently battles a power outage in the periphery of the Yangtze River. Nay more, extreme temperatures have disrupted the growth of crops and threatened livestock. It will affect those big energy-intensive industries and will have an effect throughout the economy and even impact the global supply chain. There has already been a slowdown in production in the steel industry, and in the chemical and fertilizer industry. In the net, the devastating economic impact has dislocated such sectors as construction, agriculture and manufacturing.

In a word, the prevalent heat wave could impede China’s GDP growth. Most areas of the Yangtze River basin have seen extremely high temperatures since July. Rainfall in the area fell by about 45 per cent compared to the average over recent years, based on data from the Ministry of Water Resources. That report was also cited by Liu Weiping, vice-minister of water resources, who said that reservoirs have replenished 5.3 billion cubic meters of water in the middle and lower parts of the Yangtze River since August. The latest heat wave and power outages are reminiscent of the major blackout last year, one that enveloped many of China’s key manufacturing hubs such as Guangdong, Zhejiang and Jiangsu. (notably Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Anhui to ration (A)/ Unprecedented heat waves this summer (B)/ for power to keep fans and air-conditioners operating (C)/ have prompted several Chinese provinces, (D)/ the consumption of electricity amidst the surging demand (E)).

With temperatures soaring to 40 degrees Celsius, there is considerable pressure on an economy that is already struggling under President Xi Jinping’s zero Covid policy. Additionally, the supply chain is under strain on account of the Ukraine war and military tensions around Taiwan. The demand for power has risen annually, but this summer large areas are experiencing sustained heat waves. Consequently, the peak load has risen much too rapidly. It is a measure of the intensity of the heat that poultry farmers in the eastern city of Hefei have installed air-conditioners as hens, stressed by the hot weather, have stopped laying eggs. Small wonder that price of egg has risen by up to 30 per cent. In Shanghai, the nation’s financial hub, the temperature was above 40 degrees Celsius for at least six days, the most sustained heat wave in 150 years. Much of China’s power generation is still coal-fired, contributing to the country emitting 27 per cent of the world’s greenhouse gases. The nation bears witness to a crippling cocktail of climatic aberration and industrial stagnation

Q. In context to the passage, what is/are the effect (s) of heat waves on poultry farms?
(a). High temperature affects the poultry by decreasing the growth rate and body weight of hens and also affects the production of eggs
(b). Poultry flocks are vulnerable to climate change because birds can only tolerate narrow temperature ranges
(c). Heat waves stressed the poultry farms, that it hampered the production of eggs because they stop laying eggs

On November 12, 2022, two World War II–era aircraft, a B-17 Flying Fortress and a Bell P-63 Kingcobra, collided mid-air and crashed during the Wings Over Dallas airshow at Dallas Executive Airport in Dallas, Texas, United States. The collision occurred around 1:22 p.m. local time (CST, UTC−6). The airshow, which coincided with the Veterans Day commemorations, was organized by the Commemorative Air Force. Officials reported that the B-17 had a crew of five while the P-63 had a single occupant; all six were confirmed to have died by the Dallas County Medical Examiner. Both aircraft were destroyed on impact. The B-17 involved was Texas Raiders, a Douglas-Long Beach-built B-17G-95-DL, aircraft registration number N7227C, which first entered service in 1945 and was operated by American Airpower Heritage Flying Museum. It was one of the few surviving B-17 Flying Fortress aircraft that remained airworthy. The second aircraft involved was a P-63F-1-BE Kingcobra registered N6763, which was also operated by American Airpower Heritage Flying Museum. This plane was one of only two P-63F variants ever built and was one of only five P-63s that remained airworthy. It did not have a name and was painted in its original "X" test markings.

The crash occurred at the Dallas Executive Airport during an airshow that had drawn more than 4,000 spectators. Both aircraft were piloted by highly-trained volunteers, in many cases retired professional pilots. According to witness accounts, the P-63F was performing a high-speed banked turn onto the runway approach while shedding altitude. It collided with the B-17 on the rear port quarter from above, severing the B-17's fuselage from a point just aft of its wings. Both aircraft broke apart and hit the ground seconds afterward, exploding and erupting into flames.

All six crew members were killed. It was the Commemorative Air Force's first fatal accident in 17 years. No injuries or fatalities were reported on the ground. In the hours following the accident, the Allied Pilots Association, a union representing American Airlines pilots, confirmed on Twitter that two of its former members, Terry Barker and Len Root, were part of the B-17 crew and died in the crash. Civil Air Patrol member Curtis J. Rowe of Hilliard, Ohio, was also among the victims, according to CAP Ohio Wing Commander, Col Peter K. Bowden. The remaining fatalities aboard the B-17 were Keven Michels and Dan Ragan. Craig Hutain was identified as the sole pilot of the Bell P-63. Ragan was a Korean War veteran who served on the naval variant of the B-17, which was renamed the PB-1W in the Navy, in the 1950s. The crashed B-17 was one of 32 B-17s that were transferred to the U.S. Navy in July 1945 and later became the first Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) airplanes in military history. Ragan served as a radio operator on the PB-1W.

On the day of the event, both the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) launched an investigation into the accident. On November 14, the NTSB announced that the wreckage of the P-63 had been moved to a "secure location", while recovery of the B-17 _______. The NTSB confirmed that neither aircraft was equipped with a flight data recorder, but that a GPS navigator from the P-63 and an electronic flight display from the B-17 had been recovered and were being taken to an NTSB laboratory in Washington, D.C., to be processed for "data and relevant information".

Several Texas officials reacted publicly to the crash. Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins said on Twitter, "My heart goes out to all the individuals & families affected by the horrible tragedy at the Wings Over Dallas air show today. Please join me in praying for all." Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson called the accident "a terrible tragedy in our city". The president of the Commemorative Air Force, which organized the show, said that this kind of mid-air collision during an airshow was "extremely rare."
