The wooden model of Ganga Ji Mandir in the collection is of a temple at which place?

The correct answer is 27. The collection drawn from Uttarakhand in this edition runs to twenty-seven mementos, all of them gifts presented to the Prime Minister, and they include framed artworks, photo prints, temple models and other keepsakes that reflect the state's sacred landmarks, folk traditions and regional identity. The other three options are placed close to the real number, which is the usual pattern in such questions, so the exact count is worth fixing in memory. Equally important is where the money goes: proceeds from the auction support the Namami Gange Programme for the rejuvenation and conservation of the river. Candidates should also note that this is the eighth edition of the initiative, that it is being run by the Ministry of Culture, and that bids are placed online through the official PM Mementos portal.

The correct answer is the Namami Gange Programme. Money raised through the auction of mementos presented to the Prime Minister goes towards the rejuvenation and conservation of the Ganga under this programme, which is why the wooden model of the Ganga Ji Mandir at Mukhba is described as tying the Uttarakhand collection to the purpose of the initiative. Option A, the Swachh Bharat Mission, is the national sanitation programme and is not the beneficiary here. Option C, the Jal Jeevan Mission, works on piped drinking water supply to rural households. Option D, the Atal Bhujal Yojana, deals with groundwater management in selected states. All three are plausible water and cleanliness programmes, which makes the question a good test, but only the Namami Gange Programme receives the auction proceeds.

The correct answer is Lakshya Sen, the badminton player from Uttarakhand whose signed racket is the one object from the world of sport in a collection otherwise shaped by the state's religious and cultural heritage. The connection examiners look for is the player's home state, since the whole set is built around Uttarakhand. Option B, Kidambi Srikanth, is a leading Indian singles player from Andhra Pradesh and is not linked to this collection. Option C, H. S. Prannoy, hails from Kerala. Option D, Satwiksairaj Rankireddy, is a doubles specialist from Andhra Pradesh. Besides the racket, the set includes four temple models, a photo print of the Char Dham shrines of Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri and Yamunotri, Aipan folk artwork and seven Uttarakhandi or Pahari caps.

The correct answer is the Directorate of Ayush, Government of NCT of Delhi. Field-level validation was a notable feature of the exercise: the protocols were tried out with Medical Officers working in primary and secondary healthcare under this directorate, and the feedback they gave on how usable the protocols were in day-to-day practice was built into the final documents. Option A, the All India Institute of Ayurveda, is a major Ayurveda institution but is not named as the validation partner. Option B, the Central Council for Research in Homoeopathy, belongs to the group of Ayush Research Councils whose technical expertise went into drafting the guidelines, which is a different role from field validation. Option D, the National Medical Commission, regulates modern medical education and had no part in this process. The drafting itself involved classical texts, current evidence and consensus-based deliberation.

The correct answer is Shri Prataprao Jadhav, who holds independent charge of the Ministry of Ayush as Minister of State and is also Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare. He said the guidelines would deepen the integration of the Ayush systems with the national healthcare framework and would support safe, effective and holistic care for common skin conditions. Option B, Vaidya Rajesh Kotecha, is the Secretary of the Ministry of Ayush and spoke separately about standardisation and evidence-based practice, but he is an official and not the minister. Option C, Dr Loveneesh G. Krishna, is the Director General of Health Services and highlighted multidisciplinary collaboration. Option D names the Union Health Minister, a plausible distractor since the Directorate General of Health Services falls under the health ministry, but he is not the Ayush minister quoted here.
