CTET Current Affairs Quiz: 27 September 2026

The campaign against drugs and substance abuse among the young has been designed as a sustained drive of that length, so that awareness work continues instead of ending with a single day or a single week of events.

A second-tier jury, set up only to judge the prize entries, selected twenty artworks by twenty artists for the Lalit Kala Akademi Awards at the sixty-fifth National Exhibition of Art. Options A, B and D do not match the number announced by the Akademi.

The zoo has planned a week of walks and competitions in that window, among them a tree walk, a birds walk, a butterfly and dragonfly walk, a spider and insect walk, a reptile, amphibian and molluscs walk, a keeper's talk with enclosure enrichment, and contests in clay modelling, poster making…

In his address he spoke of the place the institution holds in the healthcare and medical education landscape of Keralam, and welcomed the opening there of Robotic Surgery and Computer-Aided Diagnosis facilities.

Volunteers of these two bodies work alongside schools, colleges, universities and various social and spiritual organisations to run pledge ceremonies and awareness programmes under the campaign, and the competitions that feed it are hosted on the MY Bharat platform.

These came from two thousand four hundred and ninety-five artists spread across twenty-seven States and Union Territories, which is why option A is a trap: that number counts the artists, not the works.

The correct answer is 47 species, with sightings of more than seven hundred and fifty individual birds during the walk.

The Vice-President gave these numbers while noting a change he has observed at convocations around the country, namely that women now take home more degrees and medals than men.

This is the strand of the campaign in which young volunteers take the warning against substance abuse into their own communities, speaking in their own languages and using their own forms of creative expression, and it was praised for exactly that reason.

Selection for this exhibition happens in two stages. The first-tier jury went through the entries and shortlisted two hundred and seventy artworks for presentation at the show.

The correct answer is the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, the ministry that handles wildlife and biodiversity matters and under which the National Zoological Park works.

The Vice-President said the graduating doctors are entering healthcare at an extraordinary time, with artificial intelligence, robotics, digital health, advanced imaging and precision medicine changing the sector, and in that setting he called the opening of these two facilities significant.

The Lalit Kala Akademi is the National Academy of Art and works under the Ministry of Culture, and it is this body that organises the National Exhibition of Art every year along with the Lalit Kala Akademi Awards.

The correct answer is 20 to 25 participants, a cap the zoo keeps so that each walk stays a close and useful learning exercise rather than a crowd.

While describing how medical education has widened over the previous twelve years, the Vice-President recalled that the country once had a single AIIMS, located in New Delhi, and said that twelve new institutions of that kind have since been set up.
