0:00In this video on UP Special current
0:02affairs, today we will look at some
0:04important questions and answers that
0:05will cover our Uttar Pradesh current
0:07affairs for the month of September. So
0:09let's start the video and look at the
0:12first question. Look at the first
0:13question. Where is the country's first
0:16river-based ship repairing center being
0:19built, or where has it started? So, the
0:22country's first river-based ship
0:24repairing center is being built in
0:25Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh. Option number
0:28D will be correct. Varanasi, Uttar
0:30Pradesh. Next, let's look at the
0:32details. The country's first
0:35river-based ship repairing center is
0:36being built near the multi-modal
0:38terminal located at Ramnagar in
0:40Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh. Until now,
0:42ship repairing centers were generally
0:45built only on sea coasts. But to
0:47promote inland waterways and water
0:49transport, this is the first such
0:51center in the country that is being
0:53established on the bank of a river.
0:55With this, the repair of ships, cruises
0:57, and cargo will also be possible at
0:58the local level. Remember, where is the
1:01country's first ship repairing center
1:03being built? In Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh
1:05. Look at the next question. According
1:08to the fifth Clean Air Survey report or
1:10award 2026 report released in September
1:132026, which city has secured the first
1:15position in the country in the category
1:18of cities with a population of more
1:20than 1 million? So, in the category of
1:23over 1 million population in the Clean
1:25Air Survey Awards 2026, the state
1:27capital of Uttar Pradesh, Lucknow, is
1:29in the first or top position. Option
1:31number C will be correct. This is a
1:33most important question. You will
1:34definitely see this question in the
1:36exam. Memorize it. It is Lucknow. Along
1:38with this, we will look at the details.
1:41In the results of the fifth Clean Air
1:43Survey 2026 released by the Union
1:45Ministry of Environment, Forest and
1:47Climate Change, under the National
1:50Clean Air Programme, Uttar Pradesh's
1:52capital Lucknow has secured the first
1:54position in the country by scoring 198
1:57points in the category of cities with
1:59over 1 million population. You also
2:02have to remember that Madhya Pradesh's
2:04Indore city always remains in the first
2:06position. But this time, it is in
2:09second place with 197 points and is in
2:11second place along with that. And
2:15Jabalpur in Madhya Pradesh is in third
2:17place with 195 points, and Agra in UP
2:19is also at number five in this list. So
2:22remember this too. There is some city
2:24from Madhya Pradesh at fourth place and
2:27Agra is at fifth. You need to remember
2:28the first, second, and third positions.
2:30Okay? Look at the next question. Where
2:32has the fourth edition of the Uttar
2:34Pradesh International Trade Show been
2:36organized? First, remember which
2:38edition of the event this is. So, this
2:40is the fourth edition. Okay? Such
2:42questions are often asked in exams. The
2:44UP International Trade Show was
2:46recently organized in Greater Noida.
2:49Which option will be correct for this?
2:51Option B. India Expo Centre and Mart,
2:54Greater Noida. You have to remember
2:56this entirely. India Expo Centre and
2:58Mart, Greater Noida. See the details:
3:01the fourth edition of the Uttar Pradesh
3:04International Trade Show, remember the
3:06dates, was held from September 25 to
3:08September 29, 2026, at the India Expo
3:11Centre and Mart, Greater Noida. And you
3:13also need to remember its tagline, '
3:15Ultimate Sourcing Begins Here', what is
3:17it? 'Ultimate Sourcing Begins Here' was
3:21it, and this trade show. The main
3:24objective of this trade show was to
3:25provide a global platform for Uttar
3:27Pradesh's local products, handicrafts,
3:29ODOP, and the entrepreneurs and
3:31artisans here, and to promote business,
3:33and business itself is called trade. So
3:35, what did this become? International
3:38Trade Show. See the next question.
3:42Uttar Pradesh Toy Manufacturing
3:44Promotion Policy approved in September
3:472026. See what the policy is. The Uttar
3:49Pradesh Toy Manufacturing Promotion
3:51Policy 2026 has recently received
3:54approval. Under this, what is the
3:56maximum percentage of capital subsidy
3:58provided for plant and machinery in the
4:01general areas of the state (excluding
4:03NCR)? Now you have to remember, under
4:06the Uttar Pradesh Toy Manufacturing
4:09Promotion Policy, the maximum capital
4:11subsidy provisioned for plant and
4:13machinery in the general areas of the
4:15state (excluding NCR) is 25%. Option B
4:19will be correct. Remember this, it is a
4:21most important question. See, you also
4:23know that questions are asked in exams
4:25from policies. This is a current
4:26affairs question, so you must memorize
4:27this question thoroughly. The rest of
4:29its details are even more important
4:31because it's not like only one fact
4:33will be asked; you have to remember all
4:35the important facts. Okay? Under this
4:37policy, see the capital subsidy for the
4:40NCR region, Ghaziabad, Noida, is 15%,
4:42how much? There is a 15%discount and a
4:44maximum of ₹ 20 crore, and for the
4:46rest of Uttar Pradesh, as asked in the
4:47question above, how much is the subsidy
4:49? So, it is 25%and a subsidy of up to a
4:52maximum of ₹ 35 crore. And so, this
4:55question stated, excluding NCR. If it
4:57asks for the NCR one, it will be 15.
4:59Okay? If it asks excluding that, then
5:0125%. Now look at the stamp duty. 100%
5:05stamp duty exemption on purchasing,
5:07leasing, or renting land for factories.
5:10So, this is an important point for you.
5:12You must remember this. 100%exemption
5:13on stamp duty. Regarding electricity
5:16duty, production units will be given a
5:18full exemption on electricity duty for
5:2110 years and a special per-unit subsidy
5:23for 5 years. Let's look at patents and
5:25other incentives. There is a provision
5:27for financial assistance of 75%for
5:29domestic patents and up to ₹ 1 lakh
5:31for international patents. Look at the
5:33next question. Which national-level
5:36portal has been implemented across all
5:39state universities and colleges in
5:41Uttar Pradesh to make education
5:43completely digital, transparent, and
5:45accessible? What needs to be made
5:48accessible and enabled? Which
5:49national-level portal is this, aimed at
5:51making higher education completely
5:53digital, transparent, and accessible?
5:56It has been implemented in all
5:57universities and colleges of the state.
6:00So, this is the Samarth portal. Option
6:02number A will be correct. Samarth
6:03portal. See the details. The Samarth
6:06portal has been widely implemented by
6:08the Uttar Pradesh government to make
6:10admissions, examinations, enrollments,
6:13and teacher service-related tasks
6:14transparent in state universities and
6:16colleges; it is a central government
6:18initiative. Or, in other words, it is
6:21at the national level. This is an
6:22initiative of the Ministry of Education
6:25, Government of India, adopted by the
6:27Uttar Pradesh Higher Education
6:28Department to promote digital
6:30governance. Look at the next question.
6:32Which portal or campaign has been
6:34launched by the Uttar Pradesh
6:36government to identify and enroll
6:39out-of-school, dropout, or
6:40never-enrolled children? So, this is
6:43also related to education. Look,
6:45questions about portals are definitely
6:46asked in exams, and these are current
6:48affairs questions. So you must
6:49definitely remember them. Which portal
6:52or campaign has been started to
6:54identify and enroll children who are
6:56out of school, dropouts, or who have
6:58never been to school? So, the name of
7:01this portal is the Sharda portal. What
7:02is the name? Option number B will be
7:04the right answer. Sharda portal. See
7:06the details. The Basic Education
7:08Department of the Uttar Pradesh
7:09government operates the Sharda (School
7:11Har Din Aaye) program. The Sharda
7:13portal and mobile app are operated
7:15under this program. Its main objective
7:18is to identify children in the age
7:21group of 5 to 14 years who do not go to
7:23school or have dropped out, and to
7:25ensure their re-enrollment in
7:27age-appropriate classes and special
7:29training. Look at the next question.
7:34Which state government has recently
7:36launched the 'Mukhyamantri Krishak
7:38Samridhi Yojana' to provide long-term
7:40agricultural loans to farmers at
7:42concessional rates? So, the '
7:45Mukhyamantri Krishak Samridhi Yojana'
7:47for providing long-term loans has been
7:50recently launched by the Government of
7:52Uttar Pradesh. Option number D is the
7:55correct one. See the details. Under
8:00this scheme, small and marginal farmers
8:02of Uttar Pradesh are being provided
8:04long-term loans of up to ₹ 6 lakh
8:06through the Uttar Pradesh Cooperative
8:08Village Development Bank for
8:09agricultural irrigation and rural
8:11livelihood-related tasks. Earlier, an
8:14interest rate of about 11%was charged
8:16on this loan. Which has now been
8:19reduced to just a 6%annual interest
8:21rate by the state government after
8:23providing a 5%interest subsidy. For
8:26this, the government has also launched
8:29an official e-portal, which is
8:31mksylb.in. So, if the name of the
8:34e-portal is ever asked, please remember
8:36it. Look at the next question. In which
8:39city of Uttar Pradesh has land recently
8:41been allocated to set up a new regional
8:44hub or regional center of the National
8:46Security Guard (NSG)? Like there was a
8:48regional meteorological center recently
8:50, which was also inaugurated in Lucknow
8:52. Similarly, the main headquarters of
8:55the NSG is in New Delhi. The
8:57establishment of NSG is often asked, is
9:01it 1984 or 1986? Its founding year is
9:04asked in exams. So just check a bit
9:06whether it is '84 or '86? Anyway, what
9:08were we on? Where will the new regional
9:12hub of the National Security Guard (NSG
9:17) be built? It will be built in Ayodhya
9:19. Option number C will be correct.

9:46coming from within the country and
9:48abroad, and to ensure the permanent
9:51deployment of NSG commandos to
9:53immediately deal with any emergency or
9:55terrorist situations. Look at the next
9:59question. It is about Teachers 'Day.
10:01When is Teachers' Day celebrated?
10:02Teachers 'Day is celebrated on
10:04September 5th. How many teachers from
10:07Uttar Pradesh have been honored with
10:09the National Teacher Award on Teachers'
10:11Day? So, how many from Uttar Pradesh?
10:14So there are three teachers from Uttar
10:15Pradesh, and if we talk about the total
10:17number of teachers at the national
10:19level, there are 48 teachers in total,
10:21and out of these, how many are from
10:22Uttar Pradesh? There are three. So
10:24option number B will be correct. There
10:26are three teachers. Look, for the
10:27National Teachers 'Award 2026 announced
10:30by the Union Ministry of Education on
10:32the occasion of Teachers' Day, a total
10:34of 48 outstanding teachers have been
10:36selected from across the country. And

10:47Government Inter College, Jagdishpur,
10:49Ballia. Smt. Shalini Kushwaha from
10:51Composite School, Rasulabad, Kaushambi.
10:53So if asked, you should also keep in
10:55mind where they are from, and that
10:57there are three teachers. You have to
10:59remember this. Look at the next one.
11:01According to the agreements signed
11:03recently between six states, how much
11:05total water has been allocated to Uttar
11:08Pradesh from the Kishau Multipurpose

11:11districts including Bundelkhand? What
11:14is this project, the Kishau
11:16Multipurpose Project? It will benefit
11:20six districts. The question asks how
11:22much total water has been allocated to
11:25Uttar Pradesh, which will benefit 27
11:26districts including Bundelkhand? So,
11:29this is 3.721 billion cubic meters.
11:33Option number B has 3.721 billion cubic
11:36meters of water allocated. See the
11:39remaining details. In September 2026,
11:41at the initiative of the Central
11:43Government, a historic agreement was
11:45signed between six states, namely Uttar
11:47Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh,
11:49Haryana, Rajasthan, and Delhi,
11:51regarding the Kishau Dam Project. In
11:53this, see, you have to remember these
11:55six states. Okay? It might be asked
11:57which one is not included or which is
11:58included? Under this Kishau
12:01Multipurpose Dam Project, the 236-
12:03meter-high concrete gravity dam to be
12:05built on the Tons River on the border
12:07of Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand has

12:121324 million cubic meters. Through this
12:15water storage and management, 3.721
12:17billion cubic meters of water have been
12:20allocated to Uttar Pradesh. Next, look

13:01chosen as model cities for sanitation,
13:03solid waste management, and the
13:05development of modern urban
13:07infrastructure. In this prestigious
13:09list, if we talk about the six major
13:12cities of Uttar Pradesh, then Lucknow,
13:14Prayagraj, Varanasi, Ayodhya, Agra, and
13:16Mathura-Vrindavan have been included.
13:19The main objective of this initiative
13:21is to upgrade the scientific disposal
13:22of waste, sewage treatment, and the
13:24level of urban sanitation in these
13:26cities to global standards. And if we
13:29talk about Pragati 50, then out of the
13:3150 select cities across the country,
13:33six are from Uttar Pradesh. See the

24:19projects. A Japanese city is also being
24:22developed. Look at this: there is a
24:25proposal to develop a dedicated 500-
24:27acre Japanese city for Japanese
24:28companies and their subsidiaries in the
24:31Yamuna Expressway Industrial
24:32Development Authority area. Next, look,
24:36if asked where this Japanese city will
24:38be developed? Then it is in the Yamuna
24:41Expressway Industrial Development
24:43Authority or YEIDA area. Next, look:
24:46recently, in which division of the
24:48North Eastern Railway of Uttar Pradesh
24:51has the Indian Railways approved 295
24:53crores to implement the Kavach 4.0
24:56system over a 660-route kilometer area?
24:59Well, the headquarters of the North
25:00Eastern Railway is often asked in exams
25:02. So, it is in Gorakhpur. Where is it?
25:04It is in Gorakhpur. What is it asking
25:07here? Well, where has the approval to
25:10implement the Kavach 4.0 system been
25:12received? In which division or range?
25:15So, the right answer will be Izzatnagar
25:17division. Option number A will be
25:19correct. Izzatnagar division. The one
25:21in Bareilly. See, because its
25:23headquarters is in Bareilly, Uttar
25:24Pradesh, and a large part of it is
25:26spread across the districts of UP. That
25:29is why Kavach 4.0 is being installed
25:31here over 660 route kilometers at a
25:33cost of crores. This is a division of
25:36the North Eastern Railway. In this, see
25:38, the Izzatnagar division includes
25:39Bareilly, Kasganj, Pilibhit, Tanakpur,
25:41Kathgodam, etc. Tanakpur is in
25:43Uttarakhand. Kathgodam is also in
25:45Uttarakhand. These sections are
25:47included in this division. Lucknow and
25:50Varanasi, both these divisions are also
25:52major railway hubs of Uttar Pradesh. In
25:54these, the technology of Kavach is
25:56being expanded at a cost of 252 crores
25:59and 223 crores respectively. Now, what
26:01is Kavach 4.0? Understand this. It is
26:05an automatic safety shield that
26:06prevents major accidents by stopping
26:08the train automatically in case of an
26:10error or negligence. As you could say,
26:13it is like robotics or AI, meaning if
26:14there is an awareness beforehand, then
26:16what will happen? It will be equipped
26:18with technology such that if someone
26:20accidentally comes in front of the
26:22train, or in an emergency situation
26:23where the train needs to be stopped, or
26:25if the driver is unable to control it,
26:27it will happen automatically. It will
26:29automatically prevent collisions
26:31between two trains coming face-to-face
26:32or from behind on the same track, and
26:34will be helpful in stopping at red
26:35signals or during fog. So, remember
26:37this regarding Kavach. It has also
26:39received approval in this. Look at the
26:41next question. In which district has

27:27prices for their produce. Industrial
27:29development will gain momentum, and
27:31green energy production will be

32:54procurement of over 1 trillion, which
32:56is more than 30%of the total
32:57procurement of all states in the
32:59country. What is in it? For instance,
33:03if a government or any government
33:05institution wants to buy items for an
33:07organization, such as a desk, a chair,
33:10or a computer, it can go there and
33:13purchase them. So, it is related to the

33:19companies, this is the government's
33:21equivalent. Well, the three national
