Identifying Self-Employment Programs

The question asks to identify the program focused on creating self-employment opportunities. Let's examine the options:

  • SSA (Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan): This is an educational program aimed at providing universal elementary education. It does not focus on self-employment.
  • NRHM (National Rural Health Mission): This program aims to improve healthcare access and quality in rural areas. It is not related to self-employment generation.
  • ICDS (Integrated Child Development Services): This scheme focuses on nutrition, health, and pre-school education for children, as well as maternal health. It does not directly create self-employment.
  • PMRY (Prime Minister's Rozgar Yojana): This scheme was specifically launched to generate self-employment opportunities for educated unemployed youth by assisting them in setting up small businesses and ventures.

Program Focus on Self-Employment

Based on the analysis, the Prime Minister's Rozgar Yojana (PMRY) is the program explicitly designed to foster self-employment.
