    This document contains a 10 question geography exam covering India's lifelines of transportation. The questions assess knowledge of key topics like national highways, ports, pipelines, and inland waterways. They require identifying cities connected by specific highways, the largest and most sheltered port, a port developed to relieve pressure on Kolkata, advantages of pipeline transportation, the agency responsible for national highways, categories of communication, problems faced by railways, major inland waterways, the necessity of transportation, and a short description of Kandla port. The final two questions require longer explanations of road types and how efficient transportation is important for a country's development.
