UPTET 2026 Paper 2 Social Studies Question Paper (3-Jul-2026) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Compulsory ahead

A blue circular sign showing a plain white upward-pointing arrow is a mandatory (regulatory) road sign in India, indicating that vehicles must proceed straight ahead only.

This class of sign, called “Compulsory Ahead,” instructs drivers that turning is not permitted at that point and they must continue in the direction of the arrow.

It is not a warning about a main road, a prohibition on right turns specifically, or a slip road indicator, all of which use different shapes or symbols.
