Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Concept
A government-declared annual observance can have several milestones: approval, notification, and first celebration. When a question asks when it was first observed, the controlling date is the first official celebration, not an earlier approval or notification.
Application
On 10 November 2021, the Union Cabinet approved 15 November as Janjatiya Gaurav Divas.
The Gazette notification dated 12 November 2021 formally declared 15 November as the annual observance, marking Birsa Munda’s birth anniversary.
The first nationwide observance took place on 15 November 2021.
Cross-check and contrast
15 August 2015 is an Independence Day date and predates the declaration.
26 January 2019 is a Republic Day date and predates the declaration.
A set-level selection claiming multiple dated answers does not apply because the official chronology establishes one start date.
A set-level selection claiming no dated answer does not apply because the official start date is present among the dated choices.
Result
Therefore, Janjatiya Gaurav Divas was first observed on 15 November 2021.
