Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: A
Explanation

The Global Automotive Research Centre (GARC) is a state-of-the-art automotive testing and R&D facility established under the National Automotive Testing and R&D Infrastructure Project (NATRIP) by the Ministry of Heavy Industries. Official NATRIP documentation explicitly refers to GARC as the centre located in Chennai and notes completion of major facilities there [1]. The organisation’s own description likewise identifies GARC as the Chennai (Oragadam, SIPCOT) test centre set up to provide comprehensive certification, testing and R&D support to vehicle and component manufacturers. Based on these authoritative references, Chennai is the city where GARC has been set up.
