Teaching Current Affairs Quiz: 10 November 2026

The Ministry of Culture reported that this many devotees reached the Thubchog Gatsel Ling Monastery, or Lower Gompa, at Bomdila in Arunachal Pradesh during the opening two days of the exposition of the Holy Relics of Shakyamuni Buddha, offering prayers and seeking blessings in the presence of the Relics.

It organised the nationwide Deepotsav along with Nasha Mukt Yuva Par Paricharcha through Neighbourhood Youth Parliaments as the eighth week of the Nasha Mukt Yuva for Viksit Bharat Sankalp Abhiyan, drawing more than a lakh participants.

The quiz was opened by that ministry under the Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyaan, the drug-demand-reduction campaign it runs, and it is the same ministry whose department supports the network of de-addiction centres quoted in the announcement.

The Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment describes Vayo SAATHI as an important component of that recently launched national intergenerational bonding campaign, which itself runs under the Atal Vayo Abhyuday Yojana.

After the public exposition at Bomdila ends, the Relics are to be accorded a ceremonial send-off on 14 November 2026 and carried onward to Namsai district, where they will be enshrined at the Golden Pagoda for public viewing from 14 to 20 November 2026.

The Deepotsav leg of the drive was the bigger of the two, with 435 programmes and 568 activities, and it accounted for 1,10,101 of the participants.

The announcement states plainly that the Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyaan was launched on that date and that it has now entered its seventh year, which fits the Independence Day launch in 2020.

The Ministry has invited citizens aged eighteen years and above to register, and it names students, young professionals and community volunteers as the groups it has in mind.

The exposition at the Thubchog Gatsel Ling Monastery in Bomdila is being organised by the Ministry of Culture of the Government of India in collaboration with three partners, and each of the other three options is one of them.

The two activities were held on 6 and 7 November 2026 as the eighth week of a campaign that is designed to run for 100 weeks, so that work against substance abuse continues as a steady weekly engagement rather than a one-day event.

The Abhiyaan was first taken up in 272 districts identified as vulnerable to substance use, and its reach was later expanded so that every district in the country is covered.

The campaign uses it to set out a sequence: generations meet through community platforms and educational institutions, share experiences and stories, take up joint activities, exchange knowledge and skills, and then keep that engagement going as a regular community-led practice.

Every Neighbourhood Youth Parliament, or NYP, was planned to bring in at least 80 young people from a block through four structured sessions: a briefing on the MY Bharat portal, a session on understanding substance abuse and the challenges before India's youth, a session on moving from awareness to action…

That is the total outreach reported for the campaign, and the other figures quoted are parts of it or measure something else entirely.
