What was the Manhattan Project?

Germany initiated World War II by invading Poland.
A letter signed by Nobel prize-winning physicist Albert Einstein warned then-US President Franklin D Roosevelt of the potential threat posed by an atomic weapon being developed by Adolf Hitler.
Soon after, the US launched a secret atomic research undertaking, code-named the Manhattan Project, which sought to develop an atomic weapon to end the war.

NISHTHA Programme

NISHTHA is an acronym for National Initiative for School Heads’ and Teachers’ Holistic Advancement.
It is the largest teachers’ training programme of its kind in the world.
The basic objective of this massive training programme ‘NISHTHA’ is to motivate and equip teachers to encourage and foster critical thinking in students.
The initiative is first of its kind wherein standardized training modules are developed at national level for all States and UTs.
The States and UTs can also contextualize the training modules and use their own material and resource persons also, keeping in view the core topics and expected outcomes of NISHTHA.

India Energy Modeling Forum (IEMF)

It is a bilateral forum. Hence, statement 1 is correct.
It is not associated with any International Agency say UN, IEA, IAEA etc. Hence statement 2 is incorrect.
On March15 last year, the idea was incepted and only a formal workshop was organized on IEMF (it wasn’t launched).
The IEMF seeks to provide a platform for policymakers to study important energy and environmental issues and ensure the induction of modelling and analysis in an informed decision-making process.
The Forum aims to improve cooperation and coordination between modelling teams, the GoI, knowledge partners and think-tanks, build the capacity of Indian institutions, and identify issues for joint modelling activities and future areas of research.

Explanation:

According to the clause 43 of the Charter Act of 1813 the Company had partly undertaken the responsibility of education in India and a sum of one lakh of rupees had been earmarked for the purpose. But no concrete steps were taken in this regard before 1823. The section of the Charter Act of 1813 remained inoperative till 1823.

At last in 1823 an official agency, General Committee of Public Instruction (G.C.P.I.) was created to deal with educational matters, particularly the expenditure of the sum of one lakh of rupees. “Thus a state system of edu¬cation was begun almost simultaneously in all the three Presidencies by about 1823 and continued to expand till 1833. The educational grant of India was also increased from one lakh to ten lakhs of rupees per annum”

Thus the activities of the G.C.P.I. for the decade from 1823 clearly indicate¬ its inclination towards Orientalism. This policy of Orientalism was se¬verely attacked by the enlightened Indians under the leadership of Raja Rammohanroy. He submitted a memorandum to the Governor-General on 11th December, 1823 and urged the Government to abandon the proposal for establishing a Sanskrit College in Calcutta.

But no heed was paid to this memorial and the Committee went against the trend of history and the de¬sire for English education among Indians.
