What is the approximate total cost of the five development projects inaugurated in Ladakh on 15 October 2026?
- A.Rs 1,250 crore
- B.Rs 2,500 crore
- C.Rs 3,350 crore
- D.Rs 5,600 crore
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Rs 3,350 crore, the approximate value of the five projects that Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated and dedicated in Ladakh through video conferencing. The set includes the new airport terminal at Leh, the Nimmu-Padum-Darcha road, the Hanu hydroelectric project with its transmission network, reservoirs raised under Project Amrit Him Sarovar and the country's first Petroglyph Conservation Park. Option B is the figure for only one of these works, the Nimmu-Padum-Darcha road, so it cannot be the total for all five. Option A and option D do not match any amount in this set of projects and are therefore wrong. Candidates should keep the project-wise numbers separate from the combined figure, since examiners often mix the two.
