Cevap

The statements confirming that the scheme provides zero-premium financial compensation for crop damage due to drought, unseasonal rain, and excess rain, and that assistance is provided when crop loss is assessed at 33% or more are correct.
The Mukhyamantri Kisan Sahay Yojana (MKSY) was launched by the Government of Gujarat as a non-contributory risk mitigation scheme. It provides simple, zero-premium financial assistance to farmers who suffer crop losses of 33% or more caused by drought, unseasonal rainfall, or excess rains. The assistance is paid directly to bank accounts via Direct Benefit Transfer.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Examine the funding mechanism and risks covered under Mukhyamantri Kisan Sahay Yojana
The scheme replaced traditional insurance premium models with a 100% state-funded mechanism covering drought, excess rain, and unseasonal rainfall with zero premium levied on cultivators.
Understanding the non-contributory nature is essential to differentiate state-specific welfare safety nets from central contributory schemes.
2
Evaluate the damage assessment threshold and beneficiary landholding criteria
Assistance is disbursed via Direct Benefit Transfer for crop losses of 33% and above, and eligibility extends to all registered landholders (small, marginal, large) and Forest Rights Act title holders.
State PSC evaluations specifically test numerical eligibility triggers and universal versus targeted coverage provisions.
3
Identify correct statements and rule out misconceptions
Statements stating zero-premium risk coverage and the 33% damage threshold are accurate, while statements asserting a 1-hectare land ceiling and a mandatory 2% premium contribution are incorrect.
Allows precise isolation of correct features under multi-selection evaluation criteria.
