A 2, 1, 4, 3
B 4, 2, 1, 3
C 1, 2, 3, 4
D 3, 1, 2, 4

Correct answer: (c) 1, 2, 3, 4

Explanation

  1. A

    2, 1, 4, 3

    Option (a) claims the chronological order is 2, 1, 4, 3. This arrangement places PMKVY before Swachh Bharat Mission, which is factually incorrect as Swachh Bharat started in October 2014.

  2. B

    4, 2, 1, 3

    Option (b) claims the chronological order begins with Pradhan Mantri Mahila Shakti Kendra Scheme in 2017. However, this scheme was launched much later than the Swachh Bharat Mission and PMKVY.

  3. C

    1, 2, 3, 4

    Option (c) claims the correct chronological order is 1, 2, 3, 4, representing Swachh Bharat Mission (2014), Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana (2015), Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana (2016), and Pradhan Mantri Mahila Shakti Kendra Scheme (2017). This perfectly aligns the launch years from earliest to latest, making it the correct chronological sequence among all given alternatives.

  4. D

    3, 1, 2, 4

    Option (d) claims the sequence starts with Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana in 2016. This sequence fails because Swachh Bharat Mission and PMKVY both started earlier in 2014 and 2015 respectively.

Summary. Official key is (c) … Swachh Bharat Mission was launched on October 2, 2014. Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana followed in 2015. Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana was introduced in 2016, and Pradhan Mantri Mahila Shakti Kendra Scheme began in 2017. Aspirants often confuse the launch years of PMKVY and PMGKY. Only option (c) lists all four schemes in accurate ascending chronological order.
