Q1The objective of Antyodaya Yojana, introduced in Rajasthan in 1977, was:

A Development of barren land

B Rehabilitation of beggars

C Providing financial assistance to the poorest families

D Providing crop insurance

Explanation

Antyodaya Yojana in Rajasthan was designed to identify and support the poorest families, so financial assistance to the poorest families is the correct objective. Development of barren land relates to land improvement and wasteland programmes, not this poverty-targeted scheme. Rehabilitation of beggars is a social welfare objective of a different kind and does not describe Antyodaya. Crop insurance protects cultivators against agricultural loss, whereas Antyodaya focused on the lowest-income households and their economic upliftment.
