The correct answer is: b) Financial support for weddings.
The Arundhati Gold Scheme is a government scheme in Assam that provides financial assistance to families of girls for their weddings. The scheme was launched in 2017 and aims to reduce the financial burden on families of girls getting married. The scheme provides a maximum of Rs. 50,000 per girl, which can be used to purchase gold jewellery or other items for the wedding.
The scheme is open to all families of girls who are residents of Assam and who are below the poverty line. To apply for the scheme, families need to submit an application form along with the required documents to the district social welfare office. The application form can be downloaded from the website of the Assam government.
The scheme is a welcome initiative by the government of Assam and will help to reduce the financial burden on families of girls getting married. The scheme will also help to promote the tradition of gold jewellery in Assam.
