The correct answer is A) Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana.
Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY), also known as the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana Scheme, is a government-run scheme in India that aims to provide free cooking gas connections to women from below poverty line households. The scheme was launched on May 1, 2016, by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The scheme is implemented by the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas. The objective of the scheme is to reduce the use of unclean cooking fuels such as firewood, cow dung, and kerosene, which are a major source of indoor air pollution. The scheme also aims to empower women by providing them with access to clean cooking fuel.
Under the scheme, eligible women are provided with a free LPG connection, a gas stove, and a refill of 1 cylinder. The cylinders are refilled at a subsidized rate. The scheme has been a huge success, with over 8 crore connections being provided to women from below poverty line households.
The scheme has been praised for its positive impact on the health and well-being of women and children. It has also been credited with reducing indoor air pollution and improving the quality of life of people living in rural areas.
