D)
April 20th

Correct Answer : Option (A) - April 23rd

23rd April 2022 : English Language Day

* Every year on April 23rd, the United Nations celebrates English Day.
* The UN Department of Public Information created the event in 2010 to “celebrate multilingualism and cultural diversity, as well as promote equal use of all six official languages within the Organisation.
 
23rd April Celebrated as English Language Day :
 
The date of April 23rd was chosen for English Language Day because it is “traditionally honoured as both the birthday and date of death of William Shakespeare.”

23rd April 2022 : Spanish Language Day
 
The date was chosen since it is the anniversary of Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra’s death in Spain, as well as William Shakespeare’s birth and death in England. Not only because of their historic status in the canon, but also because of how they represent the power of language in culture, politics, and business, these two literary titans are excellent icons. Their works continue to have an impact even after they have passed away.
 
Spanish Day relevance with Shakespeare :

* Shakespeare’s works have been translated into more than 100 languages since the 1600s, including, of course, Spanish.
* In a number of countries, his figures and slogans have become part of everyday culture and philosophy.
        * Shakespeare’s works are used in business courses and staff training sessions to study creativity, innovation, emotional intelligence, teamwork, and ethics in universities and even large corporations.

None of the above

Correct Answer : Option (B) - 2 only

* It prohibits the hunting of any wild animal specified in Schedules I, II, III and IV of the Act. Hence statement 1 is not correct.

It becomes dangerous to human life or to property (including standing crops on any land).
It is disabled or suffering from a disease that is beyond recovery.

* It prohibits the uprooting, damage, collection, possession or selling of any specified plant from any forest land or any protected area. Hence statement 2 is correct.
