In the early 2000s,Greater Noida and Yamuna Expressway Industrial Authorities
in addition to the state govt. started acquiring land in and around Noida,
Gurugram. Farmers either sold off their lands or leased it out. As a result, rapid
real estate development took place and a new class of cash rich people emerged.
This resulted in the increase of high-end premier luxury cars in these urban
villages.
This gave rise to a certain practice amongst the car owners which soon
transpired upon two-wheelers too.
In the 7th round of Operation Clean conducted in Gautam Buddha Nagar
District, around 1457 vehicles were booked for following this practice. However,
defaulters have emphasized on following this practice, even if a fine is to be paid

Q.6)A standard element of Goan cuisine derived from
the Portuguese carne de vinha d'alhos (literally "meat in garlic wine

Portuguese sailor's "preserved" raw ingredients, packed in wooden
barrels of alternate layers of pork and garlic, and soaked in red wine.
This was "Indianized" by the local Goan cooks with the substitution
of palm vinegar for the red wine, and the addition of dried red chili
peppers with additional spices. It evolved into the localized and easy-

Nowadays, the British Indian version of X calls for the meat to be
