Q1What is the proposed outlay and implementation period of the Bharatiya Bhasha Pustak Scheme?
The official implementation-status document specifies a proposed budget of ₹5,554.80 crore for three years, from 2025-26 through 2027-28. The earlier figure of about ₹5,100 crore was only an estimate, while ₹22,000 refers to a book-count target under a linked initiative rather than this scheme's outlay.
Q2Consider the following statements about the Bharatiya Bhasha Pustak Scheme: 1. It covers digital textbooks and study material for both school and higher education. 2. Its proposed three-year outlay covers 2025-26 to 2027-28. 3. It is designed primarily as a direct cash-transfer scheme for students. Which of the statements given above are correct?
Statements 1 and 2 are correct: the scheme provides digital Indian-language learning material for school as well as higher education, and its proposed ₹5,554.80 crore outlay spans 2025-26 to 2027-28. Statement 3 is incorrect because the scheme expands access to content and does not transfer cash directly to students.
Q3What is the primary purpose of the Bharatiya Bhasha Pustak Scheme announced in the Union Budget 2025-26?
The scheme was proposed to supply digital-form Indian-language books for both school and higher education so that students can understand subjects better. It is therefore a language-access and educational-content initiative, not a scholarship, cash-transfer, or paid-subscription programme.
Q4Match List I with List II and select the correctly matched set. List I: 1. Bharatiya Bhasha Pustak Scheme; 2. ASMITA; 3. Expenditure Finance Committee milestone List II: a. 22,000 books in 5 years across 22 scheduled languages; b. Meeting concluded on 11 December 2025; c. Digital Indian-language books for school and higher education
The Bharatiya Bhasha Pustak Scheme corresponds to digital Indian-language books for school and higher education. ASMITA has the target of 22,000 books in 5 years across 22 scheduled languages. The Expenditure Finance Committee meeting for the scheme concluded on 11 December 2025. Thus, the correct match is 1-c, 2-a, 3-b.
Q5Consider the following two statements about the Bharatiya Bhasha Pustak Scheme: Statement I: The scheme was announced in the Union Budget 2025-26 to provide digital-form Indian-language books. Statement II: Its coverage is restricted to higher education and excludes school education. Which option is correct?
Statement I is correct because the Union Budget 2025-26 proposed the scheme for digital-form Indian-language books. Statement II is incorrect because the officially stated beneficiary sectors are both school and higher education; the scheme is not confined to universities or other higher-education institutions.
