- B.Electricity to every household
- C.A toilet in every house
- D.A paved lane in front of every house
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is A, Piped drinking water to every household. Har Ghar Nal Ka Jal is the resolve to take piped drinking water to every household, carried out by the Public Health Engineering Department in the towns and larger habitations and through the panchayats in the villages, and it had a special importance in Bihar because of arsenic, fluoride and iron in the groundwater of several districts.
Option B describes a different resolve, Har Ghar Bijli Lagatar, the drive to give an electricity connection to every willing household. Option C describes Shauchalay Nirman, Ghar Ka Samman, the toilet construction resolve carried out through the Lohiya Swachh Bihar Abhiyan. Option D describes Ghar Tak Pakki Gali-Naliyan, the resolve to build paved lanes and drains up to every house. The names are asked exactly as they are worded, so learn the Hindi phrase with the English meaning: nal ka jal for tap water, bijli for electricity, shauchalay for toilets and gali-naliyan for lanes and drains.
