How many physical files did the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas review under Special Campaign 6?

  1. A.712
  2. B.3,593
  3. C.5,593
  4. D.6,006

Correct answer

C. 5,593

Explanation

The correct answer is 5,593. The ministry completed the review of every physical file it had identified for the purpose, and that total was 5,593, one of the parameters it reported as fully finished in the progress up to 25 October 2026. Option A is wrong because 712 is the number of electronic files put up for review, a separate head in the same report. Option B is wrong because it only alters the leading digit of the correct figure. Option D is wrong because 6,006 is the number of public grievances addressed out of a target of 7,500, which works out to 80.10 per cent. Candidates should learn the four counts as a set and keep their labels straight: physical files at 5,593, e-files at 712, grievance appeals at 500 and grievances settled at 6,006, because questions in this area are usually built by swapping one label for another.
