What was the theme of the Swachhata Hi Seva Campaign 2026 concluded at the All India Institute of Ayurveda?

The correct answer is e-waste. After the Swachhata Hi Seva campaign ended, the All India Institute of Ayurveda moved on to Special Campaign 6.0, which was already under way and continues till 31 October 2026 with the theme of collecting, segregating and disposing of electronic waste effectively. Option A, plastic waste, is wrong as a theme, although avoidance of single-use plastics was indeed one of the subjects of the awareness talks held for patients during the earlier campaign. Option B, biomedical waste, is wrong here even though the host is a hospital and institute of Ayurveda. Option D is also wrong. The examinable pairing is Special Campaign 6.0 with e-waste, and the closing date of 31 October 2026. Note also that the campaign is run by the same institute that had just completed its Swachhata Hi Seva drive, so the two campaigns and their two themes should be revised together rather than in isolation.

The correct answer is 2 October 2026. The campaign was conducted over a fortnight and was wound up on that date with a campus-wide cleanliness drive, a Swachhata Pledge and the felicitation of Safai Mitras. Option A, 17 September 2026, is wrong because that is the date on which the campaign began, not the day it ended, and this pair of dates is the classic trap in questions on such drives. Option C, 31 October 2026, is wrong because that is the date up to which the next phase, Special Campaign 6.0 on e-waste, continues. Option D is an unrelated national date. Aspirants should remember the start date, the closing date and the end date of the following campaign as three distinct facts.

The correct answer is Ek Pedh Maa Ke Naam. The plantation drive was organised in the NTPC area under this initiative by the Department of Swasthavritta and Yoga, and senior faculty members, deans and scholars of the Institute took part in it. Option A, Nagar Van Yojana, is a separate urban forestry scheme and was not the initiative named for this drive. Option B, Green India Mission, is one of the national missions on climate change and again is not what the plantation drive came under here. Option C, Van Mahotsav, is the annual tree-planting festival observed in India, which makes it a plausible but incorrect choice in this question. The name to remember, linked to planting a tree in a mother’s name, is Ek Pedh Maa Ke Naam.

The correct answer is KRIBHCO. The memorandum of understanding for developing an urban forest in Bhopal under the Morvan Project was exchanged between KRIBHCO and the Madhya Pradesh State Biodiversity Board during the programme. Option B, IFFCO, is a different fertiliser cooperative and was not party to this agreement, although the similarity of the two names makes it the most likely wrong answer to attract a candidate. Option C, NAFED, is the cooperative marketing federation for agricultural produce and had no role in this memorandum. Option D, the National Cooperative Development Corporation, finances cooperative development and was likewise not involved here. Two other cooperative details from the same event are worth noting together with this one: the Sardar Patel Cooperative Dairy Federation Limited has been established for work in the dairy sector, and sanction letters were handed out under the Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar Kamdhenu Yojana.

The correct answer is 485 grams. Per capita milk availability in the country has risen by about 58 per cent, from around 307 grams a day in 2014-15 to about 485 grams a day at present, and India is now the world's largest milk producing country. Option A is wrong because it is the earlier figure and not the present one; a question that gives both years and asks for one of them is testing exactly this distinction. Options B and D are wrong because they are near misses on the current figure and do not match what was stated. The companion figures are worth revising in the same breath: total milk production has grown from about 14.60 crore tonnes in 2014-15 to about 24.80 crore tonnes, and dairy exports stand at about 4,666 crore rupees to countries including the United Arab Emirates, Bangladesh, the United States, Saudi Arabia and Bhutan.
