Skill development training
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: Subsidized food grains.
The Aahar Anudan Yojana is a government scheme in Bihar that provides subsidized food grains to the poor. The scheme was launched in 2016 and aims to provide food security to the poor and vulnerable sections of the society. Under the scheme, beneficiaries are entitled to purchase 5 kg of rice and 2 kg of wheat at a subsidized rate of Rs. 2 per kg and Rs. 3 per kg, respectively. The scheme is being implemented through the Public Distribution System (PDS) and is targeted at families living below the poverty line (BPL).
The other options are incorrect because:
- Free education is not offered under the Aahar Anudan Yojana. However, the government of Bihar does offer free education to students from economically weaker sections of the society under the Mukhyamantri Kanya Utthan Yojana.
- Housing for the poor is not offered under the Aahar Anudan Yojana. However, the government of Bihar does offer housing assistance to the poor under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana.
- Skill development training is not offered under the Aahar Anudan Yojana. However, the government of Bihar does offer skill development training to the youth under the Mukhyamantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana.
