Q1. The SHRESHTA Scheme, launched by the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, is associated with ___________.
Explanation
SHRESHTA is an education-linked scheme of the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment. It is aimed at improving access to quality schooling for targeted students, especially from Scheduled Caste communities, through selected residential schools. Farmers are covered under separate agriculture and income-support schemes, not SHRESHTA. Army personnel are served through defence welfare arrangements. Tribes are an important welfare category, but this particular scheme is not framed as a tribal-development programme; the tested association is with students.
