UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

PARAKH is intended to guide and improve assessment practices in school education. It will set standards for exams and learning outcomes and organise national achievement surveys to monitor learning, helping states and boards align assessments with competency-based education.

Option A:
Criminal investigations into malpractice are the responsibility of law-enforcement agencies and are not the core function of a national assessment centre like PARAKH.

Option B:
This option correctly reflects PARAKH’s role in standard-setting for assessment and in conducting large-scale learning achievement surveys across the country.

Option C:
University entrance examinations are largely the domain of NTA and other higher education bodies, not PARAKH.

Option D:
Constructing physical infrastructure such as classrooms and hostels is handled through separate schemes and departments, not by an assessment body.
