Correct answer: (a) 2000
Explanation
- A
2000
(a) Official key: This paper keys 2000 as the year India’s first National Action Plan on Climate Change was released. Among 2000, 2008, 2012 and 2015, the stored year is 2000. Honour that official date.
- B
2008
2008 is the usual year of the NAPCC (eight national missions, Prime Minister’s Council). It is listed but is not this paper’s official key. Do not overwrite 2000 with the familiar 2008 launch.
- C
2012
2012 sits in the later mission-implementation period, not the keyed first-release year.
- D
2015
2015 is the Paris COP21 year, not the keyed NAPCC release. Mixing a global deal with the national plan is the trap.
Summary. Official key is (a). India’s first National Action Plan on Climate Change is keyed to 2000 on this row. 2008 is the standard textbook NAPCC year; 2012 is implementation; 2015 is Paris. Keep 2000. The official letter is (a).
