Question

Which of the following is not a valid reason for the failure of poverty alleviation programme in India?

• A. Lack of proper implementation
• B. Lack of right targeting
• C. Overlapping of schemes
• D. All the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D All the above

The results of the poverty alleviation programmes have been mixed. One of the major reasons for less effectiveness is the lack of proper implementation and right targeting. Moreover, there has been a lot of overlapping of schemes. Despite good intentions, the benefits of these schemes are not fully reached to the deserving poor. Therefore, the major emphasis in recent years is on proper monitoring of all.
