Since which year has the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment been organising Shilp Samagam Melas?

The correct answer is 2022. The ministry has been holding Shilp Samagam Melas since that year to strengthen earnings for artisans from the communities it serves, and across the series the fairs have reached more than 1,000 artisans from Scheduled Castes, Other Backward Classes and Safai Karamchari communities. Options A, B and D are plausible years but none is the starting point of the series. Along with the year, remember what the ministry provides to make taking part possible, since this detail is easy to set a question on: free stalls, travel expenses, a daily allowance and transport for goods, all meant to remove the financial and logistical barriers that would otherwise keep artisans from attending. The ministry also places the fair alongside Bharat TULIP, which links artisans to e-commerce, and Purple Fest, which highlights the creativity and contribution of persons with disabilities.
