The correct answer is 3,43,288, that is about 3.43 lakh youth and citizens, who joined the 1,174 programmes held on 17 October 2026 across 36 states and union territories. The same number of Nasha Mukt Yuva pledges was taken during the campaign, and 3,380 activities were organised in all. The programmes were held with spiritual organisations, university associations and industry associations, and partner bodies included Heartfulness, Project Point, CIPU, ASSOCHAM, FICCI, CII and the Brahma Kumaris. Options A, B and D are close variants of the correct figure and are the kind of distractors used to test whether a candidate has memorised the exact number rather than its rough size. When revising, link the participation figure to the number of pledges, since in this week the two were reported as the same.
