Answer:

A. 1&2

Read Explanation:

  • Correct Answer : Option A) 1 & 2

  • PSLV is India's third-generation launch vehicle - Correct. PSLV was developed after SLV (Satellite Launch Vehicle) and ASLV (Augmented Satellite Launch Vehicle), making it India's third-generation launch vehicle.

  • It was the first Indian launch vehicle to use liquid stages - Incorrect. The SLV and ASLV that preceded PSLV were solid-propellant based rockets, but it was actually GSLV (Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle), not PSLV, that was the first to extensively use liquid stages. PSLV does use a combination of solid and liquid stages, but it wasn't the first Indian rocket to incorporate liquid propulsion.

  • PSLV C-48 was the 48th launch in its series - Correct. The numbering system for PSLV launches follows this pattern, with PSLV C-48 being the 48th launch in the PSLV series.
