In how many vulnerable districts was the Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyaan initially launched?
- A.112 districts
- B.272 districts
- C.372 districts
- D.755 districts
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 272 districts. The campaign started in that many vulnerable districts and was later widened to cover every district in the country, which is why the reach figures now run into crores of people. Option A is a number associated with other district-level programmes and is placed here to tempt a candidate who remembers only that the figure was in the hundreds. Option C sits close enough to the true value to catch a hurried reader. Option D takes a genuine figure from the same announcement, the number of de-addiction centres supported by the department, and misapplies it to districts, which is the classic way of building a distractor out of a real number. Keeping each figure tied to the right unit, districts against centres, is the safeguard.
