Mukhyamantri Vriddhjan Samman Pension Yojana MCQ - Practice Questions with Answers

Both statements are correct. The ordinary rule requires no regular income or combined annual income of the applicant and spouse below ₹48,000. The income ceiling does not apply to specified groups that include Antyodaya and Astha card-holding families, along with other listed exempt households.

Article 41 directs the State, within the limits of its economic capacity and development, to make effective provision for public assistance in old age, sickness, disablement and undeserved want. That language directly supports an old-age social-security pension.

The scheme is Rajasthan's state-funded old-age social-security pension for eligible elderly residents without a regular livelihood. It is a non-contributory recurring cash grant administered by the Social Justice and Empowerment Department, not insurance or a loan.

Statements 1, 2 and 4 are correct. The Rajasthan Social Justice and Empowerment Department administers this non-contributory recurring pension, and the listed Sahariya, Kathodi and Kherwa households receive an income-ceiling exemption. Statement 3 is false because eligibility requires the applicant to be a Rajasthan resident who is also living in the state.

Option C is incorrect because pension continuation depends on annual life verification. A beneficiary may complete it through the prescribed physical or biometric authentication route; if yearly verification is missed, payment is suspended and resumes only after re-verification. The other statements correctly describe the administrative flow.
