The correct answer is option (a).
Explanation:
The phenomenon of transfer of charge from one body to another will occur when body A is charged with a positive charge and is placed on a neutral body, body B. The charge on body A will be transferred to body B, which is now positively charged. Similarly, with negative charge.
When an individual walks on a woolen carpet then the body of that individual also bears the charge which was present on the carpet. And the body of that individual now acts as a conductor which passes the charge from woolen carpet to the handle of the door which is charged with the opposite charge. When these two oppositely charged particles meet then the individual feels an electric shock.
Therefore, option (a) is the correct answer.

The correct answer is option (b).
Explanation:
Nominal Effective Exchange Rate (NEER) is an adjusted weighted average rate at which the country’s currency is exchanged for a basket of multiple foreign currencies. The nominal exchange rate is the amount of domestic currency needed to purchase foreign currency. Hence, statement 1 is correct.
NEER is an indicator of a country’s international competitiveness in terms of the foreign exchange (forex) market. Forex traders sometimes refer NEER as the trade-weighted currency index. Hence, statement 2 is correct.
NEER can be adjusted to compensate for the inflation rate of the home country relative to the inflation rate of its trading partners. The resulting figure is the Real Effective Exchange Rate (REER). NEER is not determined for each currency separately. Hence, statement 3 is not correct.
Therefore, option (b) is the correct answer.

The correct answer is option (c).
Explanation:
The Constitution of India under Article 163(1) provides a council of ministers with the Chief Minister as head to aid and advise the Governor in exercise of his functions, except in so far as he is by or under this Constitution required to exercise his function or any of them in his discretion.
Article 163(2) states that any question arises whether a matter falls within the discretion of the Governor or not, the decision of the Governor should be final. He is the sole judge in matters in which he is required to act in his discretion. Hence, statement 1 is correct.
Article 165 (3) of the Constitution provides that the Advocate-General shall hold office during the pleasure of the Governor and shall receive remuneration as the Governor may determine. He is the highest law officer of the state. Hence, statement 2 is correct.
Therefore, option (c) is the correct answer.
