  1. A.Mission LiFE
  2. B.National Clean Air Programme
  3. C.Graded Response Action Plan
  4. D.Mission Amrit Sarovar

Correct answer

A. Mission LiFE

Explanation

The correct answer is Mission LiFE, which stands for Lifestyle for Environment. The nationwide Green Diwali Campaign of the year was run under it from the twentieth of October to the eighth of November. Option B is wrong because the National Clean Air Programme is the programme whose one hundred and thirty cities, across twenty four states and union territories, were the campaign's special focus, and not the mission under which it ran. Option C is wrong because the Graded Response Action Plan is the set of measures the Commission for Air Quality Management in NCR and Adjoining Areas applies across the region when air quality worsens. Option D is wrong because no mission of that name appears in the appeal. The campaign itself was run by WWF-India's EIACP Programme Centre with support from the Union Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change.
