MH SET 2020 Paper 2 Philosophy Question Paper (27-Dec-2020)
The correct answer is

ICPS

The Integrated Child Protection Scheme (ICPS) was launched by the Ministry of Women and Child Development in 2009–10 as a centrally sponsored umbrella scheme. It brought under one framework the earlier child protection schemes, including the Scheme for Working Children in Need of Care and Protection, the Programme for Juvenile Justice and the Scheme for Street Children.

Its aim is to build a protective environment for children in difficult circumstances through statutory bodies such as Child Welfare Committees, Juvenile Justice Boards, Special Juvenile Police Units and State and District Child Protection Units. It has since been continued as Mission Vatsalya.

ICDS (Integrated Child Development Services) deals with nutrition, immunisation and pre-school education for children under six. SSA (Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan) is the elementary education programme, and RTE is the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009. None of these is a child protection umbrella.

Hence, the answer is ICPS.
