Which of the statement/(s) is/are correct ?
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
Answer: C
Statements A, C and D are accepted, so the answer is A, C and D.
Jalamrutha, launched by the Karnataka government on 28 February 2019, is a drought-proofing programme centred on the protection and rejuvenation of water bodies (A). It is designed as a community-driven movement, relying on local participation (C), and its strategy combines water literacy, rejuvenation of water bodies, awareness about water and afforestation (D).
Statement B is wrong: the scheme was taken up by the Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Department, working through gram panchayats, not by the Water Resources Department. So the options containing B are wrong.
