Pannadhay Bal Gopal Yojana MCQ - Practice Questions with Answers

The Government of Rajasthan launched Mukhyamantri Bal Gopal Yojana on 29 November 2022 to provide milk to schoolchildren. The later change in the scheme's name to Pannadhay Bal Gopal Yojana did not alter this original launch date, so option B is correct.

Option B is incorrect because the scheme does not transfer cash to individual beneficiaries. It delivers an in-kind school nutrition benefit: hot milk is prepared and served at school using supplied milk powder and sugar. The ₹798 crore state provision, RCDF supply arrangement and placement within the Mid-Day Meal head are recorded features.

Rajasthan Co-operative Dairy Federation supplies the milk powder, distribution takes place 6 days a week, ₹1,500 per month is provided for a gas cylinder, and students in classes 6 to 8 receive 200 millilitres of prepared hot milk. Hence the complete matching code is 1-b, 2-d, 3-a, 4-c.

For each student in classes 6 to 8, the official daily norm is 200 millilitres of hot milk, prepared with 20 grams of skimmed milk powder and 10.2 grams of sugar. The lower group, from pre-primary to class 5, receives 150 millilitres; therefore option C is correct.

Both statements are correct. The daily norm for pre-primary to class 5 is 150 millilitres from 15 grams of powder and 8.4 grams of sugar. For classes 6 to 8, it rises to 200 millilitres from 20 grams of powder and 10.2 grams of sugar. Thus option A follows directly.
