Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: B. Rashtriya Gokul Mission
The Rashtriya Gokul Mission (RGM) is a centrally sponsored scheme launched by the Government of India in 2014 with the objective of increasing milk production and productivity in the country. The scheme envisages cross-breeding of local livestock with imported livestock for better yield.
The other options are incorrect because:
- National Mission for Protein Supplement (NMPS) is a scheme launched by the Government of India in 2011 with the objective of increasing protein intake in the country. The scheme does not focus on cross-breeding of livestock.
- Department of Sheep Husbandry is a department under the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, Government of India. The department is responsible for the development and promotion of sheep husbandry in the country. The department does not undertake cross-breeding of livestock.
- Jammu and Kashmir Milk Producers Cooperative Limited (JKMPCL) is a cooperative society registered under the Jammu and Kashmir Cooperative Societies Act, 1960. The society is responsible for the procurement, processing, and marketing of milk in the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The society does not undertake cross-breeding of livestock.
