By which year has the North-East been asked to become self-reliant in milk, eggs, fish and meat production?
- A.2028
- B.2030
- C.2035
- D.2040
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 2030. At the 93rd General Council meeting the Chairman gave special weight to the North-Eastern Region and set 2030 as the year by which it should meet its own demand for milk, eggs, fish and meat. Much of the region's requirement in these four lines is at present brought in from outside, even though the potential in dairy, fisheries and animal husbandry is large. Offices of the Corporation in the region were told to prepare workable projects in these sectors, arrange the finance and carry them out with the State Governments. Options A, C and D are wrong because no such deadline was named; the only year fixed for this purpose was 2030. The Chairman held that self-reliance in the four sectors could lift incomes sharply and open up employment across the region.
