Q1Which one of the following district-product pairs is incorrectly matched under Rajasthan's One District One Product examples?

A Bikaner — Bikaneri Namkeen
B Kota — Kota Doria
C Pratapgarh — Thewa Jewellery
D Jaisalmer — Kasheedakari
Explanation

Jaisalmer is matched with yellow stone products, not Kasheedakari. Kasheedakari is the listed example for Barmer. The other three pairs—Bikaner with Bikaneri Namkeen, Kota with Kota Doria, and Pratapgarh with Thewa Jewellery—are correctly matched.

Q2Consider the following statements about One District One Product (ODOP): 1. States and Union Territories select products from the existing local ecosystem and communicate the final list to DPIIT. 2. ODOP has been operationally merged with DGFT's Districts as Export Hubs initiative. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

A 1 only
B Both 1 and 2
C 2 only
D Neither 1 nor 2
Explanation

Both statements are correct. Product selection is decentralised: States and Union Territories use the existing local ecosystem and send the final list to DPIIT. Official information also states that ODOP is operationally merged with DGFT's Districts as Export Hubs initiative.

Q3Consider the following statements about One District One Product (ODOP) and its linked framework: 1. The V33 product list, with data as of 31 December 2025, records 1,243 products across 773 districts, while 4 districts awaited product finalisation. 2. PM Ekta Malls are envisaged as retail and display hubs for ODOP, GI and handicraft products; 29 Unity Malls were approved across 27 states. 3. PMFME is a separate Ministry of Food Processing Industries scheme that uses the ODOP approach for food-processing micro-enterprises. Which of the statements given above are correct?

A 1, 2 and 3
B 1 and 2 only
C 2 and 3 only
D 1 and 3 only
Explanation

All three statements are correct. The V33 list gives the exact product, district and pending-district figures. Official information describes PM Ekta Malls as ODOP, GI and handicraft hubs and records 29 approvals across 27 states. PMFME remains a separate MoFPI scheme that merely applies the ODOP approach.

Q4Which department is the nodal department for the national One District One Product (ODOP) initiative?

A Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade, Ministry of Commerce and Industry
B Ministry of Food Processing Industries
C Ministry of Rural Development
D Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises
Explanation

The Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry spearheads the national ODOP initiative. States and Union Territories select products, while DPIIT receives the approved lists and coordinates promotion and market access.

Q5Which description most accurately characterises the national One District One Product (ODOP) initiative?

A A universal direct cash-transfer programme for every artisan
B A fixed-interest loan scheme available only to food-processing units
C A promotional and convergence initiative centred on district products, branding and market access
D A state-only procurement programme with no export-promotion component
Explanation

ODOP is principally a promotional and convergence initiative rather than a standalone grant or universal subsidy. It supports identified district products through branding, catalogues, exhibitions, government procurement channels, e-commerce onboarding and export handholding.
