Which ministry organises the Shilp Samagam Mela held at Dilli Haat?
- A.Ministry of Textiles
- B.Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment
- C.Ministry of Culture
- D.Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment. The fair at Dilli Haat, INA, is organised by this ministry, and the four national corporations that take part sit under it, namely NSFDC, NBCFDC, NSKFDC and NDFDC. The purpose stated for the fair is to open market opportunities for artisans and beneficiaries from Scheduled Castes, Other Backward Classes, Safai Karamchari communities and persons with disabilities, which places it squarely within this ministry s remit of social justice and empowerment rather than with a production or craft ministry. Option A, the Ministry of Textiles, handles handloom and handicraft policy and so is the most tempting wrong answer, but it does not run this fair. Option C, the Ministry of Culture, works on heritage and the arts, and option D, the ministry for micro, small and medium enterprises, supports small units; neither organises the Shilp Samagam Mela.
