PM-DDKY is implemented through the convergence of how many central schemes?
- A.11 schemes of 36 ministries
- B.36 schemes of 11 ministries and departments
- C.47 schemes of 11 ministries and departments
- D.74 schemes of 36 ministries
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 36 schemes of 11 ministries and departments, working along with state schemes and participation from the private sector. Option A simply swaps the two numbers, and that swap is the commonest error in the examination hall, so read the order carefully: the smaller number belongs to the ministries and the larger to the schemes. Options C and D reuse the indicator counts. There are 47 outcome indicators and 74 output indicators, which together make the 121 indicators fixed across the 36 schemes for monitoring against annual targets, and neither 47 nor 74 counts schemes. One more thread of convergence appears in the review: the Department of Public Enterprises has allowed central public sector enterprises to adopt PM-DDKY districts for corporate social responsibility work in 2026-27 and 2027-28.
