Q1What income condition identifies a woman self-help-group member as a Lakhpati Didi?

A Annual household income of ₹50,000 with no requirement of continuity
B Annual household income above ₹1,00,000, with average monthly income of at least ₹10,000 sustained for at least 4 agricultural seasons or business cycles
C Personal annual income of ₹2,00,000 earned in any single month of the year
D Average monthly household income of ₹8,000 sustained for 2 agricultural seasons
Explanation

Option B is correct. A Lakhpati Didi is a self-help-group member whose annual household income is above ₹1,00,000, while average monthly income is at least ₹10,000 and remains sustained for at least 4 agricultural seasons and/or 4 business cycles.

Q2Which one of the following is NOT one of the four official strategy areas for enabling Lakhpati Didis?

A Deepening, strengthening and expanding livelihood options of self-help-group members
B Facilitating timely support to households in assets, skills, finance and markets
C Building convergence and partnerships across departments and expert institutions
D Providing an identical one-time cash grant directly to every adult rural woman
Explanation

Option D is the incorrect strategy and therefore the answer. The four areas are livelihood deepening and expansion; timely support through assets, skills, finance and markets; convergence and partnerships; and training and capacity building. A universal one-time cash grant is not part of this framework.

Q3Consider the following statements about identifying and monitoring potential Lakhpati Didis: 1. Suggested identification criteria include at least 2 years in a self-help group, access to the Community Investment Fund, participation in a mission livelihood intervention and at least 2 livelihood activities. 2. Livelihood activities and income are recorded periodically in the Digital Aajeevika Register, linked to 6-month intervals, agricultural seasons or completion of business cycles. Which of the statements is/are correct?

A 1 only
B 2 only
C Both 1 and 2
D Neither 1 nor 2
Explanation

Option C is correct. The suggested identification screen combines 2 years of self-help-group membership, Community Investment Fund access, a mission livelihood intervention and at least 2 livelihood activities. Monitoring then records activities and income periodically in the Digital Aajeevika Register, including a 6-month or business-cycle basis.
