This question was previously asked in
UPSC CAPF 2026 General Ability and Intelligence Question Paper (19-Jul-2026)
The correct answer is

The Ministry of Finance : The Department of Pension and Pensioners' Welfare

The Department of Official Language functions under the Ministry of Home Affairs, correctly matched.

The Department of Ex-Servicemen Welfare functions under the Ministry of Defence, correctly matched.

The Department of Pharmaceuticals functions under the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers, correctly matched.

The Department of Pension and Pensioners' Welfare, however, is not part of the Ministry of Finance; it functions under the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions, making this the incorrectly matched pair.

Hence, the answer is the Ministry of Finance paired with the Department of Pension and Pensioners' Welfare.
