Category: Maharashtra Gk

Hint: Think about the different levels of risk and containment measures.

Correct Answer: C) 3

Exam Relevance: UPSC, SSC, Bank PO, State PSC

Difficulty: Easy

Explanations:
  • Red Zone: Areas with a high number of cases and rapid transmission. These zones are subject to strict containment measures, including lockdowns and restrictions on movement.
  • Orange Zone: Areas with a moderate number of cases and a moderate rate of transmission. These zones may have partial lockdowns and other measures to control the spread of the virus.
  • Green Zone: Areas with a low number of cases and a low rate of transmission. These zones generally have fewer restrictions, but still require adherence to basic health guidelines.
  • Option Analysis:
    • Option A: This option is incorrect because it suggests only one zone, which would not allow for differentiated containment measures based on varying levels of infection.
    • Option B: This option is incorrect because it suggests only two zones, which would not provide enough granularity for effective management of the pandemic.
    • Option C: This option is correct because the Maharashtra government has created three zones to manage the spread of the coronavirus, allowing for more targeted public health interventions.
    • Option D: This option is incorrect because it suggests four zones, which is not the current classification system used by the Maharashtra government.
