Among the given options, ‘Youth Hostels’ is the least likely to be considered an ‘organization merged into’ RYSK. While the scheme for providing assistance for Youth Hostels is a component under the Rashtriya Yuva Sashaktikaran Karyakram (RYSK), Youth Hostels themselves are facilities, and the component under RYSK is primarily about financial assistance for their construction/upgradation, not merging an operational organization in the same sense as NYKS.
RYSK is an umbrella scheme of the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports that brings various youth development programmes under a single framework. Components of RYSK include Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan (NYKS), National Service Scheme (NSS), National Youth Corps (NYC), National Young Leaders Programme (NYLP), Youth Hostels (Assistance), etc.
