The correct option is C. The PM-JANMAN scheme (Pradhan Mantri Janjati Adivasi Nyaya Maha Abhiyan) is a scheme of the Government of India focused on the welfare of tribal communities, specifically targeting Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs).
PM-JANMAN is a comprehensive scheme aimed at providing essential facilities and services like safe housing, clean drinking water, sanitation, improved access to education, health and nutrition, road and telecom connectivity, and sustainable livelihood opportunities to PVTGs. While the option mentions ‘every member of the tribal community’, the scheme primarily focuses on the most vulnerable sections, the PVTGs. However, among the given options, only C relates to tribal welfare, making it the most appropriate answer.
The scheme was launched in November 2023. It encompasses 11 critical interventions across 9 Ministries and is implemented by the Ministry of Tribal Affairs. There are 75 PVTG communities spread across 18 States and the Union Territory of Andaman & Nicobar Islands.
