The Ministry of Textiles held workshops on cyber security and e-waste management under which government campaign?
- A.Swachh Bharat Mission
- B.Special Campaign 6
- C.Digital India Mission
- D.Mission Karmayogi
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Special Campaign 6. The two workshops, one on cyber security and secure digital disposal and the other on e-waste management awareness, were organised by the Ministry of Textiles under this campaign on 15 October 2026, and more than 85 officials attended, among them all the Nodal Officers of the ministry. The other options are wrong because none of them is the campaign named in the release. The Swachh Bharat Mission is the national cleanliness programme covering sanitation and waste in general. Digital India is the wider programme for digital infrastructure and services. Mission Karmayogi is the capacity-building programme for civil servants. Special Campaigns are the periodic government drives to clear pending matters, dispose of scrap and records and tidy up office space.
