Match each State Government Welfare Scheme listed in List-I with its primary policy objective described in List-II:

  • Palanhar Yojana (Rajasthan)Financial and educational assistance provided to kinship caregivers of orphan and vulnerable children
  • Mukhyamantri Vriksha Sampada Yojana (Chhattisgarh)Subsidized commercial tree plantation on private land to increase green cover and rural farm income

  • Mukhyamantri Matrushakti Yojana (Gujarat)Targeted provision of nutritious rations to pregnant women and lactating mothers during the first 1,000 days of motherhood

Answer

Palanhar Yojana matches with kinship caregiving for orphan and vulnerable children; Mukhyamantri Vriksha Sampada Yojana matches with commercial tree plantation on private land; Amma Vodi matches with direct financial transfer to mothers for children's education; and Mukhyamantri Matrushakti Yojana matches with nutritional food supplementation during the first 1,000 days.
Each scheme is mapped to its exact state policy mandate: Rajasthan's Palanhar Yojana supports non-institutional kinship care for vulnerable children; Chhattisgarh's Mukhyamantri Vriksha Sampada Yojana promotes private commercial forestry; Andhra Pradesh's Amma Vodi incentivizes school education via mothers; and Gujarat's Mukhyamantri Matrushakti Yojana delivers nutritional security across the first 1,000 days of life.
