Correct Answer: IV only

Explanation:

The PM-DevINE (Prime Minister’s Development Initiative for North-East Region) is a scheme specifically launched to fund infrastructure and social development projects in the North-East region for a period of four years (2022-2023 to 2025-2026).

The scheme was announced in the Union Budget 2022-23 to promote inclusive development in the region and provide support for projects that address the needs of the local population.

Incorrect Options:

  1. PM-NERLP (North East Rural Livelihood Project):

    • This was an older scheme focused on rural livelihoods in the North-East region but is not related to infrastructure and social development for 2022-2026.

  2. PM-DRDU:

    • This is not an existing scheme under the Government of India.

  3. PM-FME (Formalisation of Micro Food Processing Enterprises):

    • This scheme focuses on supporting micro food processing enterprises across India, not specific to the North-East region.

Conclusion:

The correct answer is IV only (PM-DevINE).
