The PM Mementos e-Auction is organised by the Ministry of Culture through which institution?

The correct answer is Namami Gange Programme. The money raised by the PM Mementos e-Auction supports Namami Gange, the national mission dedicated to the conservation, rejuvenation and protection of the River Ganga and its ecosystem. Since the series began in January 2019, the earlier editions have raised more than ₹50 crore for the project.

The other options are real government funds, which is why they are plausible. Swachh Bharat Kosh collects contributions for sanitation under the Swachh Bharat Mission. The PM CARES Fund was set up for emergency and disaster relief. The National Defence Fund supports the welfare of the armed forces and their families. None of them receives the auction money. The 8th edition of the auction began on 17 September 2026 and offers 1,498 mementos online.

The correct answer is Rathwa, Bhil and Bhilala. The Ministry of Culture's note on the auction describes a framed Pithora painting associated with these communities of central Gujarat, featuring horses, deities and motifs that represent the beliefs behind the art. Pithora paintings are traditionally made on the walls of homes as a ritual offering, and the horse is one of their most recognisable figures.

The other pairs are linked with different tribal art traditions, which is how exams test this topic. Warli painting, with its stick-like figures, comes from the Warli and neighbouring communities of the Maharashtra–Gujarat border. Gond art belongs to central India, especially Madhya Pradesh, and the Baiga live in the same region. The Santhal and Munda are communities of eastern India. Other Gujarat items in the auction include a Mata-ni-Pachedi textile, Lippan art and a Bhujodi shawl.

The correct answer is National Film Development Corporation. NFDC, which works under the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, runs the India Cine Hub as a digital single-window portal where domestic and international creators apply for filming permissions, film visas and co-production approvals. The portal integrates State-level systems, provides a common form for States without online processing, and offers a GIS-based directory of locations and permit authorities.

The other bodies have different jobs, which is how the question tests you. The Central Board of Film Certification certifies films for public exhibition. The Film and Television Institute of India in Pune trains filmmakers. Prasar Bharati is the public broadcaster that runs Doordarshan and All India Radio. NFDC, set up in 1975 to promote Indian cinema, also co-produces films and hosts Film Bazaar with the International Film Festival of India in Goa.

The correct answer is Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad. Set up by the Ramoji Group in 1996, it is certified by Guinness World Records as the world's largest film studio complex and is also described as the world's largest integrated film city and India's only thematic holiday destination built around filmmaking. The PIB backgrounder on the India Cine Hub lists it as one of India's three established film cities.

Film City in Mumbai's Goregaon is the tempting alternative: it is one of the largest studio complexes in the world, covering more than 520 acres with about 42 outdoor locations, was set up in 1977 and renamed Dadasaheb Phalke Chitranagari in 2001, but it does not hold the Guinness record. Noida Film City is the third established hub, and the Kolkata option is a distractor. India's production hubs together employ over 1.6 lakh people.

The correct answer is USD 13.1 billion. The backgrounder says the film, television and online content sector generated USD 13.1 billion in revenue in the financial year 2024, up 18 per cent since 2019, and is expected to keep growing at 6 to 10 per cent a year to reach about USD 17.5 to 19.7 billion by the financial year 2029. A young population, a fast-expanding 5G network and cheap data are driving the growth.

USD 19.7 billion is the trap: it is the upper end of the projection for 2029, not the figure for 2024. The other two are distractors. The growth is why the Government is streamlining shooting permits through the India Cine Hub and why the National Film Awards are being paired with tourism: film and content are being treated as an industry that brings investment, jobs and visitors.
