The Neighbourhood Youth Parliaments and Yuva Melas of October 2026 were held under which campaign?
- A.Fit India Movement
- B.Nasha Mukt Yuva for Viksit Bharat Abhiyan
- C.Khelo India Yuva Abhiyan
- D.Swachh Bharat Yuva Abhiyan
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is the Nasha Mukt Yuva for Viksit Bharat Abhiyan. The parliaments and the melas were organised as a part of this campaign, and specifically under the leg of it called the 100 Weeks Campaign, with the stated aim of turning young people into active workers against substance abuse in their own localities. Option A names a fitness drive and has nothing to do with the activities described, which centred on pledges, debates, signature drives and street plays against drug abuse. Option C points to a sporting programme, and although both come from the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, the day in question was not a sporting event. Option D is a cleanliness-flavoured name offered to catch candidates who associate every youth drive with sanitation. The platform that ran the programmes was MY Bharat, and the parliaments themselves were organised at the block level so that they stayed close to the neighbourhoods they addressed.

Practice Questions
MY Bharat organised Neighbourhood Youth Parliaments and Yuva Melas on 10 October 2026 at how many locations?
- A.1,049 locations
- B.1,469 locations
- C.2,146 locations
- D.3,650 locations
Show answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 1,469 locations. The programmes were spread over that many places in thirty-four States on a single day, and more than three and a half lakh young people and other citizens joined them. Option A inverts two digits of the right figure and is the trap a hurried reader falls into. Option C reverses the order of the digits altogether and matches nothing reported about the day. Option D is tempting for a different reason: the participation figure for the day was over 3.65 lakh, and a candidate who confuses the count of people with the count of places will pick it. Keeping the two apart is the point of the question, since examiners like pairing a spread figure with a participation figure. Also worth holding on to are the four thousand five hundred and fifty-two activities conducted and the four thousand five hundred and sixty-eight slogans collected, which belong to the same day and the same campaign.
How many public representatives attended the Neighbourhood Youth Parliaments and Yuva Melas held on 10 October 2026?
- A.Four, all Members of Legislative Assemblies
- B.Six, one Member of Parliament and five MLAs
- C.Eight, two Members of Parliament and six MLAs
- D.Ten, five Members of Parliament and five MLAs
Show answer
Explanation
The correct answer is six, one Member of Parliament and five MLAs. The ministry recorded the presence of exactly six elected representatives at the programmes, and gave their break-up as a single Member of Parliament together with five Members of Legislative Assemblies. Option A drops the Member of Parliament and reduces the count, so it fails on both the total and the composition. Option C and option D raise the total and alter the mix, and option D in particular reverses the balance by putting as many parliamentarians as legislators, which the report does not support. The break-up is the sort of detail that distinguishes a careful reading from a casual one, so it is worth tying to the other numbers of the day: one thousand four hundred and sixty-nine locations, thirty-four States, over three point six five lakh participants, four thousand five hundred and fifty-two activities and four thousand five hundred and sixty-eight slogans.
The Yuva Sangam Phase VII delegates from Uttarakhand interacted with the Governor of West Bengal. Who is he?
- A.Shri R. N. Ravi
- B.Shri C. V. Ananda Bose
- C.Shri Gurmit Singh
- D.Shri La. Ganesan
Show answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Shri R. N. Ravi, who met the visiting delegation in his capacity as Governor of West Bengal. The students and teachers discussed learning, cultural exchange and the importance of building ties among young people from different parts of the country, and the meeting gave them a view of the host state’s distinctive cultural identity. Options B, C and D are wrong because the Governor named in connection with this interaction is Shri R. N. Ravi and no other person. Candidates should note the pairing carefully, since questions on Yuva Sangam often combine the dignitary met with the host state, the nodal institute and the hosting institute. Here the delegation came from Uttarakhand, the host institute was IIT Kharagpur, and the Governor it called on was the Governor of West Bengal.
Which institute is hosting the Uttarakhand delegation during its Yuva Sangam Phase VII visit?
- A.Jadavpur University
- B.Visva-Bharati University
- C.IIT Kharagpur
- D.Presidency University
Show answer
Explanation
The correct answer is IIT Kharagpur, which is hosting the visiting group and arranging its exposure to the cultural, spiritual and educational life of the host state. On the Uttarakhand side, the nodal institute for the delegation is Hemvati Nandan Bahuguna Garhwal University, so the two institutions together anchor this pairing. Option A, Jadavpur University, is wrong because the release names the institute of national importance at Kharagpur as the host for this delegation. Option B, Visva-Bharati University, is wrong for the same reason, although it too is located in the host state. Option D, Presidency University, is wrong as well. Routing delegations through such institutes is deliberate, since it lets the academic exchange run alongside the cultural programme that Yuva Sangam is built around.
In Yuva Sangam Phase VII, the Uttarakhand delegation visited which state?
- A.Odisha
- B.West Bengal
- C.Assam
- D.Tamil Nadu
Show answer
Explanation
The correct answer is West Bengal. The delegation from Uttarakhand, for which Hemvati Nandan Bahuguna Garhwal University is the nodal institute, travelled to West Bengal and is being hosted there by IIT Kharagpur. The group was welcomed at the start of the tour, called on the Governor of the host state, and went on to see riverside landmarks in Kolkata as part of its cultural itinerary. Option A, Odisha, is wrong because that state is not the one paired with Uttarakhand in this phase of the exchange. Option C, Assam, is wrong for the same reason, as the host institute named for the visit lies in West Bengal. Option D, Tamil Nadu, is also wrong: the delegates’ programme was built around the traditions, institutions and landmarks of West Bengal and not of a southern state.
