DRDO RRU MoU: Statement Analysis

This section analyzes the statements regarding the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between the Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO) and Rashtriya Raksha University (RRU) in December 2025.

Statement 1: Collaboration Focus

The first statement claims the MoU aims to foster collaboration in training and technology support for defence and internal security. This aligns with the typical objectives of such MoUs between research organizations and security universities, focusing on enhancing capabilities in these critical domains.

This statement is deemed correct.

Statement 2: RRU Status

The second statement identifies RRU as an institution of eminence under the Ministry of Education. Rashtriya Raksha University is a key institution for national security studies.

  • Statement 2 is incorrect.

Only statement 1 accurately describes the context of the MoU.

Final Answer Choice
