Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

  • Kudumbashree was launched by the Government of Kerala for wiping out absolute poverty from the State through concerted community action under the leadership of Local Self Governments. It is built around three critical components ? 1. micro credit, 2. entrepreneurship and 3. empowerment. The Ku-dumbashree initiative has succeeded in addressing the basic needs of the less privileged women, thus providing them a more dignified life and a better future. Literal meaning of Kudumbashree is prosperity (shree) of family (Kudumbam).
