  2. B.About 350
  3. C.About 550
  4. D.About 750

Correct answer

C. About 550

Explanation

The correct answer is about 550. The first phase of the orientation drew roughly five hundred and fifty tribal healers, each nominated by the tribal welfare department of their state, and they came from nine States and Union Territories: Andhra Pradesh, Goa, Karnataka, Kerala, Maharashtra, Odisha, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, and Dadra and Nagar Haveli. Options A, B and D give figures of two hundred and fifty, three hundred and fifty and seven hundred and fifty, which are the sort of round numbers that look right for a national training camp but do not match the attendance reported. Along with the number, note how the training was delivered: sessions ran in regional languages, with experts from AIIMS, the Indian Council of Medical Research, the Quality Council of India, the M. S. Swaminathan Research Foundation, Amrita Institute in Kochi, IIHMR Bengaluru and Piramal Swasthya teaching in the language each group understood.
