   Answer: (1) 10 / (3) 5

   సమాధానం: (1) 10 / (3) 5

   Under the EIA Notification of 2006, prior environmental clearance for most projects was valid for 5 years; this was raised to 7 years in 2015 and to 10 years by an amendment of April 2022. TSLPRB's final key accepted both (1) 10, the validity in force at the time of the exam, and (3) 5, the period under the original 2006 notification. (TSLPRB's final key also gave the mark to candidates who left this question unanswered.)
