Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 2 to 31 October 2026. The Department of Health and Family Welfare reached 100 per cent of the targets set for it under Special Campaign 6, which ran over that month with a focus on making cleanliness an institutional habit, reducing pendency and improving administrative efficiency across government offices. Options A, C and D give other months and date ranges that appear nowhere in the announcement. One date inside the campaign is worth remembering separately: a dedicated one-day set of Kayakalp activities on sanitation and hygiene was held on 27 October 2026, and the Union Health Secretary reviewed preparedness for it. The campaign covered the Department's headquarters, Central Government hospitals, attached and subordinate offices, autonomous bodies and central public sector undertakings, with cleanliness drives at 1,62,325 sites in all.
