Zorluk: OrtaState Government Schemes and Welfare Policies

In the context of the 'Mukhyamantri Kanya Utthan Yojana' implemented by the State Government of Bihar to support female welfare and education from infancy through higher education, which of the following statements accurately describes the scheme's eligibility criteria and incentive structure?

  1. A
    The scheme locks all accumulated entitlements in a cumulative fixed-deposit bond payable as a single lump-sum payout only after the female beneficiary turns 21 years of age.
  2. B
    The birth and early childhood grants are universal without family caps, but higher education benefits require the beneficiary to maintain unmarried status through graduation.
  3. Financial support is disbursed in phased Direct Benefit Transfers across developmental milestones, requiring unmarried status for the intermediate grant while providing the graduation grant irrespective of marital status.Cevap
  4. D
    Financial assistance is restricted strictly to students pursuing technical professional degrees from central universities, with complete exclusion of state universities and constituent colleges.

Cevap

Financial support is disbursed in phased Direct Benefit Transfers across developmental milestones, requiring unmarried status for the intermediate grant while providing the graduation grant irrespective of marital status.
Under the Mukhyamantri Kanya Utthan Yojana, the state government provides financial assistance in staggered stages from birth up to graduation. To combat child marriage and incentivize secondary schooling, passing the Intermediate (Class 12) examination carries an incentive that requires the candidate to be unmarried. In contrast, the grant provided upon clearing an undergraduate degree is provided to any eligible female graduate regardless of whether she is married or unmarried.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the core objective and milestone design of the Mukhyamantri Kanya Utthan Yojana (MKUY).
Identified that MKUY provides lifecycle support to girl children through direct cash transfers across infancy, schooling, senior secondary, and degree graduation milestones.
Understanding the lifecycle structure rules out models that rely on a single maturity fixed-deposit bond.
2
Evaluate the specific eligibility conditions and conditionalities across early childhood and higher education tiers.
Verified that birth and immunization assistance is capped at two surviving girl children per family, intermediate pass assistance (₹25,000) mandates that the candidate is unmarried to prevent minor marriage, and graduation pass assistance (₹50,000) is given to all eligible female graduates irrespective of marital status.
State welfare schemes often embed targeted social policy incentives (such as anti-child-marriage conditions) at intermediate levels while promoting universal higher educational attainment at the collegiate level.
3
Match the verified policy framework with the given options.
The statement describing phased Direct Benefit Transfers with unmarried conditionality at intermediate level and marital neutrality at graduation level accurately reflects the policy rules.
This precisely captures the statutory guidelines of the scheme.
