MY Bharat Holds Youth Parliaments at 1,469 Locations in 34 States

The correct answer is 1,469 locations. The programmes were spread over that many places in thirty-four States on a single day, and more than three and a half lakh young people and other citizens joined them. Option A inverts two digits of the right figure and is the trap a hurried reader falls into. Option C reverses the order of the digits altogether and matches nothing reported about the day. Option D is tempting for a different reason: the participation figure for the day was over 3.65 lakh, and a candidate who confuses the count of people with the count of places will pick it. Keeping the two apart is the point of the question, since examiners like pairing a spread figure with a participation figure. Also worth holding on to are the four thousand five hundred and fifty-two activities conducted and the four thousand five hundred and sixty-eight slogans collected, which belong to the same day and the same campaign.

The correct answer is the Nasha Mukt Yuva for Viksit Bharat Abhiyan. The parliaments and the melas were organised as a part of this campaign, and specifically under the leg of it called the 100 Weeks Campaign, with the stated aim of turning young people into active workers against substance abuse in their own localities. Option A names a fitness drive and has nothing to do with the activities described, which centred on pledges, debates, signature drives and street plays against drug abuse. Option C points to a sporting programme, and although both come from the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, the day in question was not a sporting event. Option D is a cleanliness-flavoured name offered to catch candidates who associate every youth drive with sanitation. The platform that ran the programmes was MY Bharat, and the parliaments themselves were organised at the block level so that they stayed close to the neighbourhoods they addressed.

The correct answer is six, one Member of Parliament and five MLAs. The ministry recorded the presence of exactly six elected representatives at the programmes, and gave their break-up as a single Member of Parliament together with five Members of Legislative Assemblies. Option A drops the Member of Parliament and reduces the count, so it fails on both the total and the composition. Option C and option D raise the total and alter the mix, and option D in particular reverses the balance by putting as many parliamentarians as legislators, which the report does not support. The break-up is the sort of detail that distinguishes a careful reading from a casual one, so it is worth tying to the other numbers of the day: one thousand four hundred and sixty-nine locations, thirty-four States, over three point six five lakh participants, four thousand five hundred and fifty-two activities and four thousand five hundred and sixty-eight slogans.
