Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is (a) Farmers’ welfare.
The KALIA scheme is a state government scheme in Odisha that aims to provide financial assistance and other benefits to farmers. The scheme was launched in 2018 and is named after the Odia word for “farmer”.
The KALIA scheme provides a number of benefits to farmers, including:
- A direct cash transfer of â¹5,000 per year to each farmer
- A crop loan at an interest rate of 4%
- A crop insurance scheme
- A soil health card
- A farm mechanisation scheme
- A solar irrigation scheme
- A training and skill development scheme
The KALIA scheme is one of the largest and most ambitious farmer welfare schemes in India. It is expected to benefit over 90 lakh farmers in Odisha.
The other options are incorrect because:
- Option (b), Women empowerment, is not the focus of the KALIA scheme. However, the scheme does include a component that aims to empower women farmers.
- Option (c), Skill development, is not the focus of the KALIA scheme. However, the scheme does include a component that aims to provide training and skill development to farmers.
- Option (d), Urban sanitation, is not the focus of the KALIA scheme. The scheme is focused on providing financial assistance and other benefits to farmers.
