Which bodies implemented the sixth-week activities of the campaign in villages?
- A.The Sports Authority of India with state sports councils
- B.The Directorate of NSS along with 15 NSS Regional Directorates
- C.The Narcotics Control Bureau with district administrations
- D.Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan alone
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is the Directorate of NSS along with 15 NSS Regional Directorates. They carried out the week across more than 160 institutions and the villages those institutions have adopted, mobilising over 80,000 participants that included young people, Gram Panchayat members, village elders and local residents. Option A is wrong because the sports authority was not named for this week; the National Service Scheme under the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports ran it through its own network. Option C is wrong because this was a youth volunteering and awareness week rather than an enforcement exercise, and the activities were service drives, traditional games and dialogues. Option D is wrong because the organisation named there was not credited with the week, and in any case the release names the NSS Directorate with its regional directorates. Candidates should hold on to the figure of 15 regional directorates along with the 160 institutions, since both are the kind of number set in a question.
