Q1Match List I with List II and select the correct answer using the code below. List I (Case): 1. Orphan child, age 0-6 years 2. Orphan child, age 6-18 years 3. Child in another eligible category, age 0-6 years 4. Child in another eligible category, age 6-18 years List II (Monthly assistance): a. ₹750 b. ₹1,500 c. ₹2,500
The orphan-category slabs are ₹1,500 per month for age 0-6 and ₹2,500 for age 6-18, so 1-b and 2-c. For all other eligible categories, the corresponding rates are ₹750 and ₹1,500, so 3-a and 4-b. Therefore the complete matching sequence is 1-b, 2-c, 3-a, 4-b, which is option B.
Q2Which one of the following statements about the administration of Palanhar Yojana is incorrect?
Option D is incorrect. The payment is made by direct benefit transfer to the Palanhar's bank account linked with Jan Aadhaar, not to a school account. The other statements accurately describe the online application channel, substitution of Shala Darpan verification for a separate study certificate, and automatic rejection when an objection is not cured within 90 days.
Q3Which department implements Palanhar Yojana, and what is its funding character?
Palanhar Yojana is administered by the Social Justice and Empowerment Department, Government of Rajasthan. It is a recurring, fully state-funded child-protection scheme; there is no central funding share. Therefore, option B correctly identifies both the nodal department and the funding pattern.
Q4What are the annual income ceiling for a Palanhar family and the number of eligible child categories under Palanhar Yojana, respectively?
The Palanhar family's annual income must not exceed ₹1.20 lakh. Separately, the eligibility list enumerates 10 categories of children, ranging from orphans to children of silicosis-affected parents. Hence the only pair that satisfies both independently stated conditions is ₹1.20 lakh and 10 categories, given in option C.
Q5Consider the following statements about financial assistance under Palanhar Yojana: 1. An orphan child aged 0-6 years receives ₹1,500 per month. 2. A child aged 6-18 years in another eligible category receives ₹1,500 per month. 3. The annual lump-sum of ₹2,000 is payable in widow Palanhar and nata Palanhar cases. Which of the statements given above are correct?
Statement 1 is correct because the orphan-category rate for age 0-6 is ₹1,500 per month. Statement 2 is also correct because the rate for age 6-18 in all other eligible categories is ₹1,500 per month. Statement 3 is incorrect: although ₹2,000 is generally given annually for specified materials, widow Palanhar and nata Palanhar cases are excluded. Thus only 1 and 2 are correct.
