The Vayo SAATHI volunteer initiative is a component of which campaign?
- A.Atal Pension Yojana
- B.Vayo Samman Rashtriya Abhiyan
- C.Rashtriya Vayoshri Yojana
- D.Poshan Abhiyaan
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is the Vayo Samman Rashtriya Abhiyan. The Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment describes Vayo SAATHI as an important component of that recently launched national intergenerational bonding campaign, which itself runs under the Atal Vayo Abhyuday Yojana. Option A is wrong because the Atal Pension Yojana is a contributory pension product and has nothing to do with volunteering or intergenerational activity. Option C is wrong because Rashtriya Vayoshri Yojana is about providing assistive devices to older persons, a very different kind of intervention from recruiting volunteers. Option D is wrong because Poshan Abhiyaan concerns nutrition, chiefly for children, adolescent girls and mothers, and not the welfare of senior citizens. Candidates should attach Vayo SAATHI firmly to the Vayo Samman Rashtriya Abhiyan and that campaign in turn to AVYAY.
