Which three groups will together form the JOSH Teams?

The correct answer is Joint Squad for Health. That is the expansion of the acronym used by the Union Health Ministry for the squads being launched at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi, which bring Class-I Officers, MY Bharat Volunteers and NCC Cadets together for community work against tuberculosis. Option B is wrong because the squads are not an organisation of a sanitation character and the acronym does not refer to sanitation at all; their work is awareness, testing and treatment completion for a disease. Option C is wrong because the teams deliberately work outside hospitals, taking the message to blocks, wards and neighbourhoods rather than running a hospital outreach scheme. Option D is wrong on the same count, since hygiene is not the subject and the word Jan does not appear in the name, although public participation, called Jan Bhagidari, is the spirit behind the effort. Only option A gives the official expansion.

The correct answer is 55 districts in 11 States. The first phase of the squads has been planned on that scale, with the work concentrated at the block, ward and community level so that information about tuberculosis reaches people where they live and work rather than staying inside health facilities. Options A, B and D all misstate the spread of the opening phase, and candidates should note that examiners often pair the district count with the State count to test whether both have been memorised. Remember also that the phase is described as the first of its kind for these squads, so the figure is expected to grow later; the number asked about here is the launch phase, announced along with the venue Bharat Mandapam and the launch date of 8 October 2026. Learning the pair together is the safest way to answer such questions.

The correct answer is Swachh Bharat Diwas. The campaign came to an end on 2 October, which the release identifies both as Swachh Bharat Diwas and as the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi; the final plantation activity at NIFT Delhi was held on that occasion. Option A is wrong because World Environment Day falls in June and does not figure in this account. Option C is wrong because National Handloom Day, though closely tied to the textiles sector, is observed in August and is not the closing day described here. Option D is wrong because World Water Day falls in March and has nothing to do with the dates of this drive. For aspirants, the pairing worth remembering is the campaign window of 17 September to 2 October 2026 and the day it ended on.

The correct answer is Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam. Environmental sustainability formed an important part of the drive, and tree plantation was carried out under this initiative, with the concluding plantation at NIFT Delhi on Mahatma Gandhi Jayanti. Option B is wrong because Kabaad se Kala, along with Kabaad se Jugaad, belongs to the waste-to-art and recycling activities taken up on various campuses, together with plastic recycling and reuse drives. Option C is wrong because Swachh Paathshala - Yuva for Swachhata covered educational and awareness work meant to draw youth and students into the cleanliness movement. Option D is wrong because the Safai Mitra Suraksha evam Samman Shivir was the component devoted to the safety, health, dignity and welfare of Safai Mitras and to recognising their contribution.

The correct answer is Secretary (Textiles), Smt Neelam Shami Rao. The release records that the final plantation activity took place at NIFT Delhi on Mahatma Gandhi Jayanti and was led by her, with senior officials of the ministry joining, under the Shramdaan call Ek Din, Ek Ghanta, Ek Saath. Option A is wrong because no minister is named as leading this activity; the account describes officials of the ministry and of NIFT Delhi taking part. Option B is wrong because the institute's head is not credited with leading it, even though NIFT Delhi officials and stakeholders are mentioned as participants. Option D is wrong because the Development Commissioner for Handlooms does not appear in the release at all, although weavers at Shahpur in Rampur and in the Bijnour cluster did join the campaign.
