About this dataset

25 extractive question-and-answer pairs built from Cargo traffic handled at Major port during and Upto may 2019, published by shipmin.gov.in. The source is a 6-page publication. Source-evidenced topics include cargo traffic, india's major ports, deendayal port, paradip port, container, sugar, iron ores, pol-crude. 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. Question types in the export: 21 factual, 2 relationship, 1 comparison, 1 list. 4 of the 25 pairs (16.0%) ask explanatory questions; the remaining 21 are factual or table-based questions. 100.00% of rows pass the corpus quality gate.
