Janjatiya Gaurav Diwas, observed on 15 November, marks the birth anniversary of which leader?
- A.Tantya Bhil
- B.Birsa Munda
- C.Sidhu Murmu
- D.Rani Gaidinliu
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Birsa Munda, known as Dharti Aaba, whose birth anniversary falls on 15 November. The Government of India designated that date as Janjatiya Gaurav Diwas in 2021, and in 2026 the Ministry of Tribal Affairs ran Janjatiya Gaurav Pakhwada from 1 to 15 November to lead up to it, taking more than 300 projects for tribal communities to the ground, of which 228 were for inauguration and 74 for foundation stones, along with the launch of the Jan-HIT Portal and the National FRA Digital Platform. The other three names are of tribal figures honoured in various ways, but none of them is the leader whose birth anniversary gives this day its date, so options A, C and D are wrong.
