      Solution

      Explanation:  
      DAY-NRLM focuses on mobilizing poor rural households, particularly women, into self-help groups (SHGs) and enabling them to access credit, training, and sustainable livelihood opportunities. It is crucial for inclusive growth and empowerment.  
      Other schemes are more targeted:  

      • BBBP (gender equality & awareness),  
      • PM-KISAN (income support to farmers),  
      • NFSM (food security via crop productivity),  
      • PMSBY (insurance for accidental death/disability).
