The correct answer is

1992

The Chief Minister's Girl Child Protection Scheme was launched by the Government of Tamil Nadu to stop female infanticide, discourage the preference for male children and promote the education of girls.

Under the scheme a fixed deposit is made in the name of the girl child (in families with one or two girl children and no male child, where a parent has undergone family planning), and the matured amount is paid when she turns eighteen.

The scheme was introduced in the year 1992 and has since been revised several times to raise the deposit amount.

Hence, 1992.
