Answer: Option C — Lucknow
Detailed Solution
'Krishi Kumbh 2018' was held in Lucknow from 26 to 28 October 2018, so the answer is (C). The Uttar Pradesh government organised this national farm fair to show farmers new technology, seeds, irrigation and organic farming; Japan and Israel were partner countries and the Prime Minister addressed farmers by video. 'Prayagraj' is a trap because it hosted the religious Kumbh Mela from January to March 2019, not the Krishi Kumbh. 'Bareilly' and 'Gorakhpur' were not the venue, although the PM-KISAN scheme was launched from Gorakhpur on 24 February 2019. The 2019 Prayagraj Kumbh is also remembered for records in sanitation and crowd management.
