- B.Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana and Ayushman Bharat
- C.Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana and the National Pension System
- D.Atal Pension Yojana and Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is the Pradhan Mantri Viksit Bharat Rozgar Yojana (PMVBRY) and the Pradhan Mantri Shram Yogi Maandhan (PM-SYM) scheme. The first two sessions of the day dealt with an overview of the Labour Codes and with the compliance duties of employers under each code and the central and state rules, while the third and fourth were given to these two schemes of the Ministry of Labour and Employment. Option B is wrong because housing and health insurance schemes fall outside the Ministry's social security sessions here. Option C is wrong because skill development and the National Pension System were not the subjects of these sessions. Option D is wrong because, while those are social security schemes, they were not taken up at this programme.
