Book: Comprehensive Indian Economy
India invests in social welfare to uplift marginalized groups and expand human capital. Flagship schemes focus on healthcare (Ayushman Bharat), sanitation (Swachh Bharat), nutrition (POSHAN Abhiyaan), and education (Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan). Direct Benefit Transfers reduce leakages, ensuring targeted subsidies. While these programs can drastically improve living standards, challenges remain in last-mile delivery, funding constraints, and bureaucratic complexities. For exam readiness, recognize the objectives, target beneficiaries, and implementing agencies of major welfare schemes. Also track outcomes measured by indices like HDI and MPI to assess the real impact.
