[Practice MCQ with Prelims Tricks] With reference to the Sanchar Saathi initiative by the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), consider the following statements:

1. It focuses on verifying the authenticity of IMEI numbers in mobile phones.

2. The app can aid in tracing and disabling stolen mobile devices remotely.

3. It mandates SIM card binding for messaging app usage to enhance security.

Which of the above statements are correct?

Statement 1 Trick:

If an app helps you check whether a phone is real or fake → sounds true.

Statement 2 Trick:

If an app helps you find or block a stolen phone → very believable → true.

Statement 3 Trick:

If an app claims to control how WhatsApp/other chats work → too unrealistic → false.

If statement says “mandates”, that’s likely false (that’s a DoT rule, not an app feature).
