Q2Consider the following statements about PRITHWI: 1. Its five named work-streams include prey-base augmentation and conflict-mitigation infrastructure. 2. The Budget Speech identifies the 291 wildlife ambulances as a sub-allocation carved out of PRITHWI's ₹1,500 crore. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

A 1 only

B 2 only

C Both 1 and 2

D Neither 1 nor 2

Explanation

Statement 1 is correct because prey-base augmentation and conflict-mitigation infrastructure are explicitly among PRITHWI's five work-streams. Statement 2 is incorrect: 291 wildlife ambulances and Rapid Mobility Teams have a separate ₹25 crore budget provision, not a stated sub-allocation of PRITHWI's ₹1,500 crore.

Q3Which statement correctly describes the administrative position and purpose of PRITHWI?

A It is a Central cash-transfer scheme for households near protected areas.

B It is a Rajasthan state project for wildlife conservation and reducing human-wildlife conflict around protected areas.

C It is a municipal programme limited to wastewater treatment in Balotra.

D It is an agricultural irrigation scheme for constructing water-harvesting structures in villages.

PRITHWI is a Rajasthan state project centred on wildlife conservation and mitigation of human-wildlife conflict in and around protected areas. It is not a Central scheme, a household cash transfer, an irrigation programme or a municipal wastewater project.

Q4What is the proposed outlay for the PRITHWI project in the Rajasthan Budget 2026-27?

A ₹1,500 crore

B ₹2,500 crore

C ₹1,000 crore

D ₹25 crore

Q5Which one of the following is incorrectly paired with its location or institutional role in the wildlife provisions of Rajasthan Budget 2026-27?

A Wildlife Institute of India — knowledge partner for the wild-animal treatment network

The Wildlife Institute of India at Dehradun and the Indian Veterinary Research Institute at Bareilly are knowledge partners, while Sambhar is an avian-treatment location.
