Solution

The correct option is B 1999
Swarnajayanti Shahri Rojgar Yojna was launched in April 1999 by Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee to promote self-employment among the unemployed rural population. This was achieved through establishment of self-help groups wherein people were clustered on the basis of skills and aptitude. The groups were funded by NGOs, banks and other financial institutions.
