How much revenue did the Department of Posts earn from scrap disposal under Special Campaign 6.0 up to 16 October 2026?
- A.Rs 27.64 lakh
- B.Rs 45.20 lakh
- C.Rs 67.56 lakh
- D.Rs 1.06 crore
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Rs 67.56 lakh. Since 2 October 2026 the Department of Posts disposed of 3,06,026 kg of scrap and that fetched revenue of Rs 67.56 lakh. Option A, Rs 27.64 lakh, is the revenue from electronic waste, a separate head under which 17,980 kg of e-waste was disposed of in a scientific manner, so it belongs to a different activity. Options B and D give amounts that were not reported for either head. Aspirants should keep the two pairs of figures apart in memory: scrap of 3,06,026 kg against Rs 67.56 lakh, and e-waste of 17,980 kg against Rs 27.64 lakh. The department presents both as evidence that obsolete material and old electronic equipment are being handled responsibly rather than left to pile up at postal establishments, and the same report notes the Waste to Wealth work in the West Bengal Circle.
