Jal Kranti Abhiyan-
Two villages, preferably facing acute water scarcity are being selected as “Jal Grams”
An integrated water security plan, water conservation, water management and allied activities are being planned for these villages by Panchayat level committee to ensure optimum and sustainable utilization of water
Totally 1348 villages have to be identified in 674 districts, out of which 1001 have been selected as Jal Grams in the country
Senior officials from CWC and CGWB who are nodal agencies for implementation have been directed to take up issue with State Governments whenever Jal Gram selection has been slow
From each Jal Grams, one elected representative of Panchayat and one representative of the water users association are being identified as Jal Mitra/ Neer Nari
Training is being imparted to them to create mass awareness about issue pertaining to water as well as providing necessary guidance in tackling water supply related routine issues
Card known as Sujalam Card (with the logo “Water Saved, Water Produced) is being prepared for every Jal gram which would provide the yearly status/information on availability of water for the village from all sources
A committee has been formed at village level and block level for implementation and monitoring of works under Jal gram, Block level, District level and State level committees have also been set up in the states to monitor the progress of Jal Gram

Consider the statements about occurrence of minerals in earth
Metamorphic rocks minerals occur in beds
 Sedimentary rock minerals occur in layers
Igneous rock minerals occur in lodes
Which the following is/are correct?
Correct
In igneous and metamorphic rocks minerals may occur in the cracks, crevices, faults or joints. The smaller occurrences are called veins and the larger are called lodes. In most cases, they are formed when minerals in liquid/molten and gaseous forms are forced upward through cavities towards the earth’s surface. They cool and solidify as they rise. Major metallic minerals like tin, copper, zinc and lead etc. are obtained from veins and lodes.
(ii) In sedimentary rocks a number of minerals occur in beds or layers. They have been formed as a result of deposition, accumulation and concentration in horizontal strata. Coal and some forms of iron ore have been concentrated as a result of long periods under great heat and pressure.

Arrange the following Iron ores based upon their quality or pure iron content:
Limonite
Siderite
Magnetite
Haematite
Choose the appropriate code:
Correct
Magnetite: This is the best quality of iron ore and contains 72 per cent pure iron. It
possesses magnetic property and hence is called magnetite. It is found in Andhra Pradesh,
Jharkhand, Goa, Karnataka etc
Haematite: It contains 60 per cent to 70 per cent pure iron and is found in Andhra Pradesh,Jharkhand, Orissa, Chhattisgarh, Goa etc
Limonite: It contains 40 per cent to 60 per cent pure iron. It is of yellow or light brown colour
Siderite: It contains many impurities and has just 40-50 per cent pure iron. However, due to presence of lime, it is self fluxing

3. Jharkhand is the leading producer of Mica
4. Mica is having low dielectric strength.
Select the correct answer using the code given below.
Correct
Mica is a mineral made up of a series of plates or leaves. It splits easily into thin sheets. These sheets can be so thin that a thousand can be layered into a mica sheet of a few centimeters high. Mica can be clear, black, green, red yellow or brown. Due to its excellent di-electric strength, low power loss factor, insulating properties and resistance to high voltage, mica is one of the most indispensable minerals used
in electric and electronic industries.
Mica deposits are found in the northern edge of the Chota Nagpur plateau. Koderma Gaya – Hazaribagh belt of Jharkhand is the leading producer.
