Question Numbers: 91-99Directions: Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow by selecting the correct/most appropriate option:1. Kids for Tigers is an environmental educational programme for schools across India launched in 2000 which aims to bring out the vital connection between the survival of the tiger and ecological security of the Indian subcontinent. Through 'edutainment' workshops, tiger fests, nature walks, film shows and tiger information kits, Kids for Tigers seeks to increase awareness among children about India's biodiversity and sensitize them to the fact that saving tigers and their forests will also secure our water supply and help save ourselves. Their rationale is simple, "We cannot save the tiger without saving its forests. If we do this, we are saving India's purest water sources".2. The organization does not believe that children must wait to become adults before taking charge of their destinies. They are encouraged to make their voices heard, to write to powerful decision-makers and influence their own families and communities. These children are young defenders of the wild and have lobbied for the tiger at the national level, asked for protection for wildlife sanctuaries, met with political leaders, senior government officials, editors of newspapers and magazines and public figures of all kinds. Their contributions have been recognized and admired by environmental groups in India and abroad. Some of the world's most credible wildlife experts have taken out time to help groom the most promising among these tiger warriors in their future role at the frontline of the tiger's defense.3. Public rallies, signature campaigns, petition sheets, photo exhibitions, celebration of eco days, like World Environment Day are some activities undertaken to heighten the cause. The aim is to increase the reach across the country. Even though there are no tigers in Kashmir, work is being done to spread awareness about the endangered Hangul, the State animal.
