This question was previously asked in
MH SET 2023 Paper 2 Computer Science and Applications Question Paper (26-Mar-2023)
The correct answer is

Panchayat Yuva Krida Khel Abhiyan

PYKKA is the Panchayat Yuva Krida Aur Khel Abhiyan, launched by the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports in 2008–09 to provide basic sports infrastructure and annual competitions at village and block panchayat level.

Its aim was to broad-base sports in rural India; in 2014 it was subsumed into the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Abhiyan, which later merged into Khelo India.

The other expansions wrongly use ‘Planning’, ‘Yuvak’, ‘Association’ or ‘Abhigyan’, none of which form part of the scheme’s name.

Hence, PYKKA stands for Panchayat Yuva Krida Khel Abhiyan.
