Answer 1

Answer:

C. 1, 2, 3

The IVFRT project is designed to upgrade India's immigration system into a secure and integrated platform. Key features include the use of biometrics and advanced scanners at various entry and exit points to authenticate traveler identities, thereby enhancing national security and facilitating legitimate travel. The project does not aim to eliminate the need for visas, which remain a requirement for international travel based on bilateral agreements and immigration policies.
