The key objective of the Revamped RGSA is to develop the governance capabilities of the Panchayati Raj Institutions to deliver on the Sustainable Development Goals. 3. The share of the Central funding for the Revamped RGSA is 100% for all States and Union Territories. Select the answer using the code given below:

  1. A.1 and 2✓ Correct
  2. B.2 only
  3. C.1 and 3
  4. D.2 and 3

Explanation

The Revamped Rashtriya Gram Swaraj Abhiyan was approved for implementation from 1st April 2022 to 31st March 2026 — although some sources cite 2021 as the start year, the period given in statement 1 is broadly accepted. The key objective is indeed to develop governance capabilities of Panchayati Raj Institutions to deliver on SDGs through inclusive local governance, so statement 2 is correct. The Centre-State funding ratio is 60:40 for general category States and 90:10 for North-Eastern and Himalayan States; for UTs without legislature, it is 100% centrally funded, but not 100% for all States and UTs. Hence statement 3 is incorrect.
