…………… of the rural families in Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh are covered under the National Rural Livelihood Mission.

Two-third
One-third
Two-fourth
Half

The correct answer is: A. Two-third

The National Rural Livelihood Mission (NRLM) is a government of India programme launched in 2005 with the objective of eradicating rural poverty and empowering rural women. The NRLM is implemented through a network of Self Help Groups (SHGs) and Village Organizations (VOs).

As of 2018, about 70% of the rural families in Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh were covered under the NRLM. This means that about 2.5 million rural families in these two states were members of SHGs or VOs.

The NRLM has been successful in reducing poverty and empowering women in rural areas. A study by the National Institute of Rural Development (NIRD) found that the NRLM had helped to reduce poverty by 10-15% in the states where it was implemented. The study also found that the NRLM had helped to increase women’s participation in decision-making and to improve their access to resources.

The NRLM is a successful example of a government programme that has helped to reduce poverty and empower women in rural areas. The programme has been implemented in a large number of states and has had a positive impact on the lives of millions of people.

The other options are incorrect because they do not reflect the actual coverage of the NRLM in Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh.
