The correct answer is Option A (Paper gold scheme).

Key Points:
• Special Drawing Rights (SDR) and IMF:
• The Special Drawing Right (SDR) was created by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in 1969 (operationalized in 1970) under the First Amendment to its Articles of Agreement.
• Concept of 'Paper Gold':
• SDR was introduced as a supplementary international reserve asset to tackle the Triffin Dilemma and shortages of physical gold and US dollars in international liquidity.
• Because it functioned as a synthetic, book-entry international reserve asset acting as a proxy for gold reserves, it was universally referred to as 'Paper Gold' (कागदी सुवर्ण).
• Valuation Basket:
• Originally defined as equivalent to 0.888671 grams of fine gold (the exact value of one 1969 US Dollar).
• Currently, the SDR basket comprises five major reserve currencies: US Dollar, Euro, Chinese Renminbi, Japanese Yen, and British Pound Sterling.
• Answer Key confirms Option (1).
• Key Takeaway: SDR introduced by IMF in 1969-70 as an international reserve asset is known as 'Paper Gold'.
