B PRATIBHA
C DHRUV
D PARIVARTAN

Correct answer: (c) DHRUV

Explanation

  1. A

    LAKSHYA

    (a) LAKSHYA. Not the 10 October 2019 gifted-children programme name.

    PRATIBHA

    (b) PRATIBHA. A plausible Hindi label, not the notified scheme of that date.

  3. C

    DHRUV

    (c) DHRUV. Pradhan Mantri Innovative Learning Programme ‘DHRUV’ was launched on 10 October 2019 to mentor talented school children. That is the official key.

  4. D

    PARIVARTAN

    (d) PARIVARTAN. Unrelated branding; not the 10 October launch.
