Practice questions
Q1Match List I with List II and select the correct code. List I (field situation) 1. A woman facing violence needs shelter, legal aid and medical support. 2. Girls from disadvantaged communities in an educationally backward block need residential schooling. 3. A meritorious girl needs mobility support for higher education. 4. A district campaign seeks community participation for girl-child survival and education. List II (initiative) P. One Stop Centre Q. Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya R. Kalibai Bhil Medhavi Chhatra Scooty Yojana S. Beti Bachao Beti Padhao
One Stop Centres provide integrated support to women facing violence, and KGBVs provide residential schooling for disadvantaged girls in educationally backward blocks. Kalibai Scooty supports higher-education mobility, while Beti Bachao Beti Padhao uses awareness and community mobilisation for girl-child survival and education; hence the match is 1-P, 2-Q, 3-R, 4-S.
Q2Which option correctly distinguishes PCTS from Jan Aadhaar in Rajasthan's women and child welfare delivery?
PCTS links pregnancy, birth, immunisation and other child-related milestones with beneficiary records. Jan Aadhaar is Rajasthan's family-level identity platform that supports authentication and DBT; neither is itself a fixed cash-benefit, residential-schooling or cooked-meal scheme.
Q3Consider the following statements about maternity benefits: 1. Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana provides ₹5,000 for the first child. 2. Rajasthan's Mukhya Mantri Matratva Poshan Yojana provides ₹6,000 in 5 instalments for the second child. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Both statements are correct. PMMVY is the national first-child benefit of ₹5,000, whereas Rajasthan's Mukhya Mantri Matratva Poshan Yojana supports the second child with ₹6,000 paid in 5 instalments; the child order, amount and instalment pattern distinguish the two.
Q4During a field visit, a supervisor observes that children in Classes 1-8 of a government-aided school are being served cooked meals. Which scheme is directly associated with this service?
PM POSHAN Shakti Nirman provides cooked meals to children in Classes 1-8 in government and government-aided schools. ICDS delivers a broader Anganwadi-based package for young children and mothers, while Palanhar and Mukhyamantri Matratva Poshan provide financial support to different beneficiary groups.
Q5Assertion (A): PMMVY and Mukhya Mantri Matratva Poshan Yojana should not be treated as the same benefit. Reason (R): PMMVY provides ₹5,000 for the first child, whereas the Rajasthan scheme provides ₹6,000 in 5 instalments for the second child. Choose the correct answer.
Both statements are true. The differences in child-order conditions, amounts and national or state scope explain why the two benefits must be distinguished: PMMVY is a national scheme and also covers the second child when she is a girl, while the other is Rajasthan’s second-child support.
