Question

Issue of PUC certificate can control
A. Noise Pollution
B. Water Pollution
C. Sound Pollution
D. Air Pollution

Answer 1

PUC certification is required for all vehicles on Indian public roads. PUC Certificate specifies the carbon emission level that your vehicle could contribute.

Complete Answer:
Vehicle pollution certificate for motor vehicles, also known as PUC Certificate or Pollution Under Control Certificate, serves as a certification that the vehicle emits acceptable emission levels as required by the Central Motor Vehicles Act, 1989.
This is achieved by approved emission testing centres that are typically located across India in petrol pumps. The emissions certificate contains information such as the vehicle registration number, the PUCC serial number, the release test date, the test reading and the validity date. PUCC is a necessary document which the driver must carry at all times.
The vehicle emissions emit smoke which, if left unchecked, can pollute the atmosphere. As such, the vehicle emission standards must be tested by a standard to assess how healthy they are and whether they lead to air pollution. Thus, the Central Motor Vehicle Act 1989 mandated the law for undergoing a specified PUC test and obtaining the PUC Certificate.

So, the correct answer is Air Pollution.

Additional Information:
According to the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), particulate size 2.5 micrometers or less in diameter is capable of causing the greatest damage to human health. These small particles can go deep into the lungs and can cause breathing problems, pain, inflammation and lung damage and premature death.

Note: In India, the emissions standards or emission levels are set for all forms of motor vehicles. When a vehicle has successfully undergone a PUC inspection, the vehicle owner is issued a certificate.
