Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Many Government of India missions carry a backronym: the short scheme name is itself an acronym whose full expansion states the mission's purpose. To identify such a scheme, match the initial letter of each PRINCIPAL word in the given expansion (skipping minor connector words such as "for", "through", and "and") to the candidate name, then confirm that the outlay, date, and sector mentioned in the question line up.

Taking the initials of the principal words "Strategy, Healthcare, Advancement, Knowledge, Technology, Innovation" (omitting the connectors "for", "through", "and") gives S-H-A-K-T-I, i.e., SHAKTI. The Union Government's official announcement in February 2026 names this ₹10,000-crore mission "Mission Biopharma SHAKTI", launched to build India into a global biopharma manufacturing hub — matching the acronym, the outlay, the date, and the sector stated in the question.

  • Mission Shakti is a real, separate scheme for women's safety and empowerment; it carries no SHAKTI backronym for healthcare/biopharma and no ₹10,000-crore manufacturing outlay.

  • Mission Biofuel Energy names an energy-sector initiative, not a healthcare/biopharma-manufacturing one, and does not expand to the given acronym.

  • Mission Save Nature names a conservation-themed initiative with no acronym link to "Strategy for Healthcare Advancement through Knowledge, Technology and Innovation" and no biopharma-manufacturing purpose.

Only Mission Biopharma SHAKTI satisfies the acronym, the sector, the outlay, and the announcement date given in the question.
