- A.Rs 158 crore
- B.Rs 258 crore
- C.Rs 358 crore
- D.Rs 458 crore
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Rs 258 crore. The Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation inaugurated some projects of the Chandigarh Administration and laid the foundation stones of others, and the combined value of the works was given as two hundred and fifty eight crore rupees. They cover six fields, namely education, healthcare, justice, administration, research and innovation. Within this package a City-UT Bus Depot built for sixty eight crore rupees was opened, and Type-3 residential quarters for the housing of police personnel, also built at a cost of sixty eight crore rupees. Options A, C and D are wrong because no such totals were announced at the ceremony; they are only figures close to the real one, of the kind an examination uses as distractors. Candidates should link the amount with the place and the date, since the same day marked sixty years of Chandigarh, of Haryana and of the Chandigarh Police.
