6 extractive question-and-answer pairs built from ICMR Standard Treatment Workflow (STW) DIABETIC RETINOPATHY, published by icmr.gov.in. Every answer is a verbatim span of text the source prints, and each row carries the passage it sits in, its offset in that passage, the source quote, the page and the location in the document, so any row can be checked against the original. 5 of the 6 pairs (83.3%) are explanatory questions and 1 restate a figure. 100.00% of rows pass the corpus quality gate.
