How many Safai Mitra Suraksha Evam Samman Shivir were conducted by the organisations of the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas during the campaign?

  1. A.143
  2. B.234
  3. C.276
  4. D.450

Correct answer

B. 234

Explanation

The correct answer is 234. Recognising the contribution of sanitation workers, the ministry's organisations conducted 234 Safai Mitra Suraksha Evam Samman Shivir, and 7,098 sanitation workers took part in these camps. The same pillar also saw 276 preventive health check-ups organised for 4,365 participants and 3,518 PPE kits distributed, all of it aimed at the safety, health, dignity and welfare of safai mitras. Option A, 143, is wrong because that is the number of cleanliness drives held at water bodies, with 1,264 individuals taking part. Option C, 276, is wrong because that is the number of preventive health check-ups, not of the shivirs, and this is the pairing most often confused. Option D, 450, is wrong because that is the number of composting awareness drives held under the Jan Bhagidari pillar. Reading each figure with the activity attached to it is the only reliable way to answer such questions.
