Which gallery of the Yuge Yugeen Bharat Museum is expected to open to the public first?
- A.Languages and Scripts
- B.Adornment
- C.Mathematics and Astronomy
- D.Bharat Connects - Trade and Ideas
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Adornment. This gallery is expected to open to the public in the North Block in the later part of 2027, making it the first of the museum's galleries to receive visitors. The museum is being developed in phases from FY 2026-27 to FY 2030-31, with further thematic galleries added through a modular approach, so the remaining options name themes that have been identified but are not the first to open. Languages and Scripts, Mathematics and Astronomy, and Bharat Connects - Trade and Ideas are all among the themes listed for the museum, alongside Architecture and Cityscapes and Faith and Spirituality, which is what makes them plausible distractors. The collection drawn on for these galleries runs to about 18 lakh shortlisted objects from national, State and private holdings.
