Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Concept: Government insurance and welfare schemes often run a beneficiary-facing outreach drive to hand policyholders their official documents directly, so each beneficiary can personally verify the coverage, premium, and terms recorded under their name.

Application: The 'Meri Policy Mere Hath' (My Policy in My Hands) campaign was launched under the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY) — the Government's flagship crop-insurance scheme run by the Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare. Under this drive, farmers already enrolled in PMFBY were handed their crop-insurance policy documents directly, allowing each farmer to verify the crop covered, the sum insured, and the premium paid against their policy.

Cross-check: None of the other offered schemes is associated with the 'Meri Policy Mere Hath' crop-insurance policy-distribution campaign:

  • Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana provides a renewable one-year life-insurance cover to bank or post-office account holders.

  • Atal Pension Yojana guarantees subscribers a fixed monthly pension after the age of 60.

  • Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana drives universal access to zero-balance bank accounts with a RuPay debit card.

Hence, the campaign 'Meri Policy Mere Hath' is associated with the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana.
