Correct Answer - Option 5 : None of the above/More than one of the above

The correct answer is More than one of the above.

  • The Government of Bihar formally launched the Satat Jeevikoparjan Yojana (SJY) on 5th August, 2018 with a budgetary outlay of INR 840 crores (approximately USD 120 million).
  • The Bihar Rural Livelihoods Promotion Society (JEEViKA), the State Rural Livelihoods Mission (SRLM) has been designated as the nodal agency to implement the programme.
  • The programme aims to cover around 100,000 (0.1 million) ultra-poor households with 24 months of livelihoods and mentoring support through dedicated community cadres - Master Resource Persons (MRPs).

  • The objective of this programme is to empower ultra-poor households traditionally engaged in production, transportation and selling of country liquor/toddy; ultra-poor from SC/ST and other communities through diversification of livelihoods, capacity building and improved access to finance.
    • Intrinsically, it also includes provisions of increasing employment and livelihood opportunities in rural India. Hence, More than one of the above is correct (Revised BPSC CCE Answer Key)
  • The SJY is designed on the lines of the globally evaluated ultra-poor graduation program (including components, sequencing and coaching).
  • The “Graduation Approach” includes a holistic set of services to the poorest households in a village including a participatory identification process, asset-grant transfer, training, temporary consumption allowance, weekly mentoring, general life skills coaching, and access to savings accounts and health information or services.
  • These different activities along with regular interactions with the households over the course of 24 months are designed to help households to start a productive self-employment activity.
