Correct option is B
The correct answer is: (b) Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment
· PM DAKSH (Pradhan Mantri Dakshta Aur Kushalta Sampann Hitgrahi) scheme is implemented by the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment.
· It aims to provide skill development training to the Scheduled Castes (SCs), Other Backward Classes (OBCs), Economically Backward Classes (EBCs), De-notified Tribes (DNTs), and other marginalized groups to enhance their employability and self-reliance.
Why not the other options?
Ministry of Finance:
· The Ministry of Finance is responsible for managing the country's financial resources, fiscal policies, and economic reforms. It does not handle skill development schemes like PM DAKSH.
Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises:
· While this ministry focuses on promoting entrepreneurship and supporting small businesses, the PM DAKSH scheme is specifically aimed at marginalized communities, and hence it falls under the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment.
Ministry of Education:
· The Ministry of Education focuses on formal education, literacy, and academic programs, not on vocational skill development for marginalized groups.
