    • Question 6: 'X' was explaining the technological architecture of FASTag and Multi-Lane Free Flow (MLFF) toll collection. 'X' stated that FASTag transactions primarily rely on Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), while MLFF can integrate RFID with Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) to identify vehicles and facilitate toll collection without requiring them to stop. 'Y' argued that because ANPR cameras can identify a vehicle's registration number, ANPR itself constitutes the FASTag-based payment mechanism. 'X' disagreed. Based on the above, select the correct conclusion from the options given below:

      • 'X' is correct because RFID is the core technology associated with FASTag, while ANPR can serve as a complementary vehicle-identification mechanism in MLFF.
      • 'Y' is correct because ANPR identification automatically authenticates the FASTag and independently completes the toll transaction.
      • The views of both 'X' and 'Y' are correct because RFID and ANPR perform identical functions in FASTag-based toll collection.
      • Neither 'X' nor 'Y' is correct because FASTag-based toll collection relies exclusively on GPS technology.
