- A.Swachhata Mein Sahbhag; Swachh Bharat, Viksit Bharat
- B.Sampoorna Swachhata
- C.Swabhav Swachhata, Sanskaar Swachhata
- D.Waste to Wealth, Wealth to Nation
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Swachhata Mein Sahbhag; Swachh Bharat, Viksit Bharat. That is the theme of the 10th edition of Swachhata Hi Seva, which is being observed from 17 September to 2 October 2026 and was launched jointly by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs and the Department of Drinking Water and Sanitation. The campaign follows a Whole of Government and a Whole of Society approach. Option B is a general slogan and not the theme announced for this edition. Option C recalls the wording used for an earlier edition of the campaign, which is exactly the sort of distractor a paper setter likes, but it is not the theme now in force. Option D borrows from Swachhata se Samriddhi, the pillar that deals with the circular economy and Waste-to-Wealth work; a pillar is not the theme, so it is wrong.
