Correct answer
C
1 and 3
D
2 and 3
Explanation
The Revamped Rashtriya Gram Swaraj Abhiyan was approved for 2022–23 to 2025–26 (1 April 2022 to 31 March 2026), not from 2021, so statement 1 is wrong. Its key objective is to build the governance capabilities of Panchayati Raj Institutions to deliver on the SDGs. Its state components are shared 60:40 between the Centre and states (90:10 for North-eastern and hill states, 100% for Union Territories), so funding is not 100% central for all, and statement 3 is wrong.
