With reference to Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana, consider the following statements: 1. It is the flagship scheme of the Ministry of Labour and Employment. 2. It, among other things, will also impart training in soft skills, entrepreneurship, financial and digital literacy. 3. It aims to align the competencies of the unregulated workforce of the country to the National Skill Qualification Framework. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

Option (c) is correct because PMKVY provides holistic training beyond technical skills, including digital literacy and entrepreneurship, while utilizing the Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) component to certify the informal workforce under the National Skill Qualification Framework (NSQF). Statement 1 is the primary distractor; the scheme is the flagship initiative of the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE), not the Ministry of Labour and Employment. The core concept tested is the institutional oversight and specific operational components of major government skill development initiatives.
