Q1What is the maximum bank loan facilitated for an approved self-employment activity under Mukhyamantri Vishesh Yogyajan Swarojgar Yojana?

A ₹5,00,000
B ₹2,00,000
C ₹1,00,000
D ₹50,000
Explanation

The scheme facilitates a bank loan of up to ₹5,00,000 for an approved self-employment activity. This must be distinguished from the ₹50,000 maximum subsidy and the ₹2,00,000 combined annual-income ceiling used for eligibility.

Q2Consider the following statements from the CAG's 2023 examination of Mukhyamantri Vishesh Yogyajan Swarojgar Yojana: 1. Subsidy aggregating to ₹21.21 lakh was released in 65 cases without ascertaining actual disbursement of the full loan. 2. Irregular subsidy aggregating to ₹5.00 lakh was released in 10 cases involving beneficiaries above the 55-year age ceiling. 3. The prescribed subsidy was ₹50,000 or 50% of the loan amount, whichever was higher. Which of the statements given above are correct?

A 1 and 2 only
B 1 and 3 only
C 2 and 3 only
D 1, 2 and 3
Explanation

Statements 1 and 2 reproduce the CAG findings: ₹21.21 lakh was released in 65 cases without confirming full loan disbursement, and ₹5.00 lakh was irregularly released in 10 over-age cases. Statement 3 is false because the subsidy is 50% of the loan or ₹50,000, whichever is lower.

Q3A bank sanctions a loan of ₹80,000 under Mukhyamantri Vishesh Yogyajan Swarojgar Yojana. Applying the prescribed formula, what state subsidy is payable?

A ₹30,000
B ₹40,000
C ₹50,000
D ₹80,000
Explanation

The subsidy equals 50% of the loan or ₹50,000, whichever is lower. Half of ₹80,000 is ₹40,000, which is below the ₹50,000 cap. Therefore, the payable subsidy is ₹40,000, not the maximum cap automatically.

Q4Consider the following statements from the CAG's 2023 examination of Mukhyamantri Vishesh Yogyajan Swarojgar Yojana: 1. The prescribed 5% interest-rate rebate was not provided in all test-checked districts during 2016-21 to beneficiaries who repaid loan instalments on time. 2. The CAG found that the second subsidy instalment was not disbursed or was delayed in 457 cases, with delays ranging from 2 to 36 months where they occurred. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

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

Both statements are correct. The CAG reported that the prescribed 5% interest rebate was not provided in the test-checked districts during 2016-21. It also found 457 cases in which the second subsidy instalment was missing or delayed, with delays of 2 to 36 months.

Q5Which one of the following correctly states both the age band and the combined annual-income ceiling for an applicant under Mukhyamantri Vishesh Yogyajan Swarojgar Yojana?

A 18-45 years; ₹2,00,000
B 18-55 years; ₹3,00,000
C 18-55 years; ₹2,00,000
D 21-55 years; ₹2,50,000
Explanation

The prescribed age band is 18 to 55 years. In addition, the applicant's own income combined with family income from all sources must not exceed ₹2,00,000 annually. Option C alone reproduces both conditions without altering either threshold.
