Correct Answer: All of the above


Solution : The correct answer is(d) all of the above beneficiaries.

The Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) scheme is a welfare initiative by the Government of India aimed at reforming the delivery of various subsidies and benefits to the intended beneficiaries. It involves the direct transfer of funds from the government to the beneficiaries' bank accounts, eliminating intermediaries and reducing leakages in the system.

The DBT scheme covers a wide range of beneficiaries across different sectors. It includes farmers who receive subsidies for agricultural inputs, such as fertilizers and seeds. Students benefit from scholarships, grants, and educational subsidies through DBT. Entrepreneurs and small business owners may receive financial assistance and subsidies to promote entrepreneurship and business development.
Apart from farmers, students, and entrepreneurs, the DBT scheme also extends to other beneficiary groups such as pensioners, low-income households, women, senior citizens, and individuals belonging to economically weaker sections of society.
