Q. Mandla, which became the fully ‘functionally literate’ district in the country, is located in which state?
Answer: Madhya Pradesh
Notes: Madhya Pradesh’s tribal-dominated Mandla region has become the first fully ‘functionally literate’ district in the country. A person is called functionally literate when they are able to write their own name, to count and read and write in Hindi. The region rolled out a major campaign in 2020 to educate the people in the region.
