The correct answer is Option D (All of the above).

Key Points:
• Evaluation of central rural poverty and welfare schemes:
• Statement a is TRUE: Integrated Rural Development Programme (IRDP, launched 1978/1980) aimed to raise targeted rural families above the poverty line by providing them income-generating assets through credit and subsidy for self-employment.
• Statement b is TRUE: Jawahar Gram Samridhi Yojana (JGSY, launched in 1999 as restructured JRY) focused on rural infrastructure development while giving special preference to BPL SC/ST families and disabled individuals.
• Statement c is TRUE: Ganga Kalyan Yojana (launched in 1997) was specifically designed to provide irrigation facilities through exploiting groundwater sources (borewells/tubewells) to small and marginal farmers living below the poverty line.
• All three statements are correct, making Option 4 ('All of the above') the correct answer.
• Key Takeaway: IRDP supported self-employment, JGSY prioritized BPL SC/ST/disabled persons, and Ganga Kalyan Yojana provided groundwater irrigation.
