What was the original deadline for completing the Farmer ID target, which was met five months early?
- A.31 December 2026
- B.31 March 2027
- C.30 September 2027
- D.31 March 2028
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 31 March 2027. That was the date fixed for the completion of the Farmer ID registry, and the work was closed by the night of 23 October, which is five months earlier. Option A, 31 December 2026, is wrong: no December date was set, and a December deadline would not leave a five-month margin from late October. Option C, 30 September 2027, is wrong because it falls after the actual deadline and would make the margin eleven months rather than five. Option D, 31 March 2028, is wrong for the same reason; it is a year later than the date that was set. The margin is the key fact to carry into the examination hall, since a question may ask either for the deadline or for how early the work finished. Credit for the result was given to the ministry, the state governments, Union Territory administrations, district teams and field staff, which Shivraj Singh Chouhan described as cooperative federalism at work.
