Question

Choose the correct meaning of the idiom: Fallen off the radar

This question was previously asked in
SSC CHSL 2025 Tier 1 Question Paper (21-Nov-2025) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Become unnoticed

A radar screen shows what is being watched or tracked. To fall off the radar means to stop being noticed, followed or talked about.

So the idiom means to become unnoticed, for example: After his first hit film, the actor has fallen off the radar.

Gained attention and Gained popularity are opposites, and Avoided detection suggests deliberately hiding, while the idiom only means people have stopped noticing.

Hence, Become unnoticed.
