What was the period of the implementation phase of Special Campaign 6 in which DIPAM disposed of its identified targets?
- A.15 to 30 September 2026
- B.2 October 2026 to 31 October 2026
- C.1 to 30 November 2026
- D.2 September 2026 to 2 October 2026
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 2 October 2026 to 31 October 2026. The campaign was run in two stages, and this second stage, the implementation phase, was when the department actually disposed of the matters it had listed. Option A gives the dates of the preparatory phase instead, which ran from 15 to 30 September 2026 and was used only to fix targets across key areas such as VIP references, inter-ministerial and PMO references and Parliamentary Assurances, along with simpler procedures, the review and weeding of files and the upkeep of office space. Options C and D are dates that do not match either phase of the drive. What was achieved in the implementation phase is worth remembering with the dates: all 3 targeted VIP references were disposed of, an Implementation Report on 1 of the 8 Parliamentary Assurances went to the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha Secretariats, two cleanliness campaigns were conducted, and e-waste was scrapped through MSTC Limited for Rs 2,01,777.
