RAS question
RHB stands for:
Correct answer: (B) Rajasthan Housing Board.
RHB stands for Rajasthan Housing Board, the Rajasthan state government body associated with affordable housing.
Explanation
RHB expands to Rajasthan Housing Board. The official Rajasthan Urban Portal, under the Department of Urban Development and Housing, lists "Rajasthan Housing Board (RHB)" in its related-websites section and links it as Rajasthan Housing Board. In Rajasthan's urban and housing administration, RHB is the institutional acronym for a state government body associated with affordable housing in Rajasthan. The key is to read RHB as an institutional acronym in Rajasthan's urban and housing administration, not as a generic construction or habitation phrase. For RAS Economy of Rajasthan, such abbreviations are asked because they connect welfare delivery, urban governance and housing policy to named state institutions.
Why the other options are wrong
- (A) Rajasthan Home Builders is not the expansion shown on the official Rajasthan Urban Portal, which names Rajasthan Housing Board (RHB).
- (C) Rajasthan Habitation Bureau does not match the official portal's wording, which uses Housing Board, not Habitation Bureau.
- (D) Regional Housing Bureau changes both the jurisdiction and the institution type, while the official listing is Rajasthan Housing Board (RHB).
Concept
Rajasthan economy and urban-governance preparation includes state bodies linked to housing and welfare delivery. RAS often repeats such acronyms because they are compact markers of schemes, departments and implementation agencies.
