SSC Selection Post 2022 Matriculation Level Question Paper (02-Aug-2022) (Shift-4)
The correct answer is

Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Nidhi 

The correct answer is Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Nidhi.

Additional Information: Importance of Dedicated Health Funds Creating dedicated funds like the Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Nidhi is a strategy to ensure that resources collected for a specific purpose, such as health through a cess, are actually utilized for that purpose without diversion. A non-lapsable nature is vital for long-term planning and implementation of health programs, as it provides predictability and continuity in funding, unlike funds that might lapse at the end of the fiscal year if not spent. This helps in strengthening health infrastructure, improving access to healthcare services, and funding critical public health initiatives using the proceeds from the health and education cess.
