What was the per capita milk availability in Sikkim during 2024-25?
- A.About 252 grams a day
- B.About 302 grams a day
- C.About 352 grams a day
- D.About 452 grams a day
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is about 352 grams a day. Sikkim recorded milk production of roughly 89.35 thousand metric tonnes during 2024-25, and per capita milk availability in the state worked out to around 352 grams per day, which is why Sikkim is described as having played a significant part in dairy development in the North Eastern Region. Options A, B and D are wrong because they are not the figure reported for the state. The pair of numbers is worth memorising together, since a question may give the production figure and ask for availability or the other way round. Candidates should also link the state’s dairy performance to the central support behind it, namely the Rashtriya Gokul Mission, the National Programme for Dairy Development and the National Livestock Mission.
