Q1By June 2025, which pair correctly states the cumulative tap and sewer connections delivered under AMRUT and AMRUT 2.0 together?

A 1.50 crore tap and 2.03 crore sewer connections

B 2.03 crore tap and 1.50 crore sewer connections

C 2.68 crore tap and 2.64 crore sewer connections

D 1.81 crore tap and 67.11 lakh sewer connections

Explanation

The ten-year progress reported in June 2025 records 2.03 crore tap connections and 1.50 crore sewer connections delivered under AMRUT and AMRUT 2.0 together. The 2.68 crore and 2.64 crore figures are programme targets, so they cannot replace the delivered-outcome figures asked for here.

Q2On which date was the original AMRUT Mission launched?

A 2 October 2014

B 25 June 2015

C 1 October 2021

D 25 June 2025

Explanation

The original Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation was launched on 25 June 2015. The 1 October 2021 date belongs to AMRUT 2.0, while 25 June 2025 marked ten years since the original launch; therefore option B alone is correct.

Q3Which description most accurately identifies the original AMRUT Mission?

A A direct cash-transfer programme for every urban household

B A rural housing scheme implemented only through village councils

C A fully private programme limited to city parking projects

D A Centrally Sponsored Scheme for urban infrastructure and service-level improvement

Explanation

AMRUT is a Centrally Sponsored Scheme centred on urban infrastructure and service-level improvement. Its benefits arise through assured tap water, sewerage or septage, drainage, parks and cleaner mobility rather than through household cash transfers, so option D captures both its type and purpose.

Q4Consider the following statements about funding under the original AMRUT Mission: 1. The annual budget was divided into 80% project fund, 10% reform incentive, 8% State administrative and office expenses, and 2% ministry administrative and office expenses. 2. Central assistance for projects was released in instalments in the ratio 20:40:40. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

A Both 1 and 2

B 1 only

C 2 only

D Neither 1 nor 2

Explanation

Statement 1 correctly gives the original annual budget division as 80% project fund, 10% reform incentive, 8% State administrative and office expenses and 2% ministry expenses. Statement 2 is also correct because central project assistance was released in 20:40:40 instalments. Hence both statements are correct.

Q5Match List I with List II regarding components of the original AMRUT Mission: List I: 1. Water supply; 2. Sewerage and septage; 3. Storm-water drainage; 4. Urban transport List II: a. Footpaths and cycling facilities; b. Rejuvenation of water bodies for source security; c. Drains to reduce urban flooding; d. Reuse of treated wastewater Select the correct code.

A 1-a, 2-b, 3-d, 4-c

B 1-c, 2-a, 3-b, 4-d

C 1-b, 2-d, 3-c, 4-a

D 1-d, 2-c, 3-a, 4-b

Explanation

Water supply includes rejuvenating water bodies for source security, while sewerage and septage include reuse of treated wastewater. Storm-water drainage uses drains to reduce or eliminate urban flooding, and urban transport includes footpaths and cycling facilities. Thus the complete match is 1-b, 2-d, 3-c and 4-a.
