Correct Answer: Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojana

 


Solution : The correct answer is (c) Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojana

The Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojana (DDUGJY) is a scheme launched by the Government of India with the objective of providing electricity to all rural households and ensuring 24x7 power supply to rural areas across the country.

The scheme focuses on strengthening and upgrading the electricity distribution infrastructure in rural areas, including feeder separation, system strengthening, metering, and rural electrification. It aims to provide electricity access to all unelectrified villages, as well as to households that are still without electricity connections in already electrified villages.

Through this scheme, the government aims to improve the socio-economic condition of rural communities by providing them with reliable and affordable electricity access, which in turn supports various developmental activities, enhances livelihood opportunities, and improves the overall quality of life in rural areas.

Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
The Black Drongo also known as the King Crow, is a small Asian bird of the drongo family. Previously, it was seen as a subspecies of the African Fork-tailed Drongo but is now recognised as a full species. It is a common resident breeder in much of tropical southern Asia from southwest Iran through India and Sri Lanka to southern China and Indonesia. It is a wholly black bird with a distinctive forked tail and measures 28 cm in length feeding on insects, it is commonly found in open agricultural areas and light forest areas throughout its range, perching conspicuously on a bare perch or along power or telephone lines the species is famous for its aggressive behaviour towards much larger birds, such as crows, and never hesitates to dive-bomb any birds of prey that invade its territory. Smaller birds often nest in the well-guarded vicinity of a nesting Black Drongo.
The Black Drongo has been introduced to some Pacific islands, where it has thrived and become abundant to the point of threatening and causing the extinction of native and endemic bird species there.
Drongos fly with strong flaps of the wing and are capable of fast manoeuvres that enable them to capture flying insects. With short legs, they sit upright on thorny bushes, bare perches or electricity wires. They may also perch on grazing animals.
The Black Drongo is found predominantly in open country and usually perches and hunts close to the ground. They are mostly aerial predators of insects but also glean from the ground or off vegetation.
They are found as summer visitors to northeastern Afghanistan and northern Pakistan but are mainly resident south from the Indus Valley up to Bangladesh and into India and Sri Lanka.
