- A.Indore, Madhya Pradesh
- B.Dewas, Madhya Pradesh
- C.Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh
- D.Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Dewas, Madhya Pradesh. The Ministry of Labour and Employment and the Labour Department of the Madhya Pradesh government held Shram Samvad, a district-level capacity-building and awareness programme on the Labour Codes, labour welfare and social protection, at Dewas on 5 November 2026. The Association of Industries Madhya Pradesh and Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd were partners in the event. Options A, C and D name other cities of the same state, and Bhopal is its capital, but none of them hosted this programme. Aspirants should link the programme to the district town where it was actually held, because questions on such outreach events usually turn on the venue, the date and the ministry involved rather than on the content of the sessions.
