1. The financial transfer under the scheme is credited directly into the bank account of the nominated female member of the beneficiary household.
2. The initiative is executed as a centrally sponsored scheme with a 60:40 funding sharing pattern between the Union and State Governments.
3. Priority selection is statutorily accorded to households having persons with disabilities (Divyangjan), unmarried women, and widows.

    1 and 2 only
  2. 1 and 3 onlyCevap
  3. C
    2 and 3 only
  4. D
    1, 2, and 3

Cevap

Statements 1 and 3 are correct
The option specifying statements 1 and 3 is correct. The Orunodoi scheme of Assam mandates that financial aid is transferred exclusively to the bank accounts of nominated female heads of eligible households to promote financial inclusion and gender empowerment. Furthermore, preferential priority is explicitly given to households with specially-abled members, widows, and separated or unmarried women. The second statement is incorrect because the scheme is entirely funded by the State Government of Assam and does not follow a 60:40 central cost-sharing framework.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the beneficiary identification and transfer architecture described in the first statement
The statement is correct as Orunodoi designates the woman of the household as the primary beneficiary and transfers monthly assistance directly to her bank account through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT).
The policy focuses on direct economic empowerment and decision-making autonomy for women in vulnerable households.
2
Examine the funding mechanism and administrative structure stated in the second statement
The statement is incorrect because Orunodoi is a 100% State-funded flagship initiative administered by the Finance Department of the Government of Assam, not a Centrally Sponsored Scheme with a 60:40 split.
State-specific welfare schemes are often fully funded out of the Consolidated Fund of the State unless notified as a National Centrally Sponsored Scheme.
3
Verify the socio-economic targeting and priority criteria mentioned in the third statement
The statement is correct because the scheme guidelines mandate special preference for households with Divyangjan (specially-abled persons), widows, divorced or separated women, and unmarried women above specified age brackets.
Targeted social security safeguards the most economically and socially vulnerable cohorts within the state.
