2025 Q33Polity
With reference to the Government of India, consider the following information :
Organization — Some of its functions — It works under
I. Directorate of Enforcement : Enforcement of the Fugitive Economic Offenders Act, 2018 : Internal Security Division-I, Ministry of Home Affairs
II. Directorate of Revenue Intelligence : Enforces the Provisions of the Customs Act, 1962 : Department of Revenue, Ministry of Finance
III. Directorate General of Systems and Data Management : Carrying out big data analytics to assist tax officers for better policy and nabbing tax evaders : Department of Revenue, Ministry of Finance
In how many of the above rows is the information correctly matched?
(a) Only one
(b) Only two
(c) All the three
(d) None
Answer: (b)
Trap: Partial Truth
Row I is wrong - Directorate of Enforcement works under Department of Revenue, Ministry of Finance (NOT Ministry of Home Affairs). It does enforce the Fugitive Economic Offenders Act, so the function is right but the ministry is wrong. This partial correctness traps candidates into accepting the entire row.
