The correct answer is

(ii) and (iii) only

The Chief Minister's Solar Powered Green House Scheme was launched by the Government of Tamil Nadu in 2011–12 to build fully State-funded houses for the rural poor, each fitted with solar powered lighting.

Statement (ii) is true: the salient features of the scheme published by the Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Department state that all the people living below the poverty line in rural areas are eligible for solar powered green houses; beneficiaries are drawn from the permanent BPL wait list of the village panchayat.

Statement (iii) is true: the same salient features state that no land acquisition is envisaged under the scheme and that only people with patta for their sites are eligible, so the house is built on the beneficiary's own site.

Statement (i) is false: protecting farmers from the exploitative practices of private traders is the aim of farmers' market schemes such as Uzhavar Sandhai, not of a rural housing scheme. So the true features are (ii) and (iii).

(ii) and (iii) only option is correct.
