Correct Answer - Option 1 : To provide scholarships to rural youth for higher education

The correct answer is To provide scholarships to rural youth for higher education.

  • Unnathi:
    • Towards the end of the first decade of IKP in the year 2009, it was observed that 20% of the poor were still untouched, the majority of whom belonged to socially vulnerable groups (SC/ST) and thus needed intensive handholding support.
    • To address this critical gap, SERP evolved a more targeted and focused approach under IKP, to fight the poverty of the poorest known as Unnathi.

  • Objectives:
    • The objective of Unnathi is to enable every poorest of a poor family in the state to come out of poverty with increased and sustainable livelihood opportunities established with the aid of intensive handholding support.
    • The same has to be done in a focused and phased manner starting with organizing them, strengthening their institutions, increasing their asset base, mitigating risks, expanding the livelihoods, and increasing their incomes.
      • In concise, enhancing the income of the POP family to an annual income of Rs. One lakh over a period and a significant improvement in human development aspects are considered the twin mandates of the proposed strategy.
    • The need for Unnathi was further confirmed by the data from the baseline survey that was carried out immediately after the identification of PoP households.
      • Detailed information was gathered about each and every PoP household on all important livelihood, human development, and quality of life aspects.
      • The baseline of PoP families doubly confirmed the need for an exclusive strategy which was rightly put in place by SERP in the name of Unnathi.
