How much office space did the Ministry of Power free during Special Campaign 6?

  1. A.1,51,757 square feet
  2. B.2,51,757 square feet
  3. C.3,51,757 square feet
  4. D.6,20,121 square feet

Correct answer

B. 2,51,757 square feet

Explanation

The correct answer is 2,51,757 square feet. During Special Campaign 6, run from 2 to 31 October 2026, the Ministry of Power completed 342 cleanliness drives at its offices and those of its public sector enterprises, and that work released this much space for use. Option A understates the figure and option C overstates it; both are close enough to the real number to catch a candidate who remembers only the leading digit. Option D is the space freed by a different organisation in the same campaign, so it tests whether the candidate has kept ministry-wise figures apart. The ministry also earned 15,74,20,231 rupees from scrap and e-waste disposal, weeded out 13,282 physical files from 26,885 reviewed, and settled 1589 public grievances along with 86 appeals, in both cases above target.
