Which one of the following statements about ‘Niryat Bandhu Scheme’ is correct?

Result
Your answer: —  ·  Correct: A
Explanation

The ‘Niryat Bandhu Scheme’ is a flagship initiative of the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry [1]. Its primary objective is to mentor and guide first-generation entrepreneurs and potential exporters in the intricacies of international trade [1]. The scheme focuses on providing training, educational booklets, and practical guidance to help new entrants understand initial procedures, documentation, and organizational requirements necessary for starting an export business [1]. It aligns with the Foreign Trade Policy's goal of promoting exports and enhancing India's global trade footprint by building the capacity of small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and individual entrepreneurs [3]. Unlike other schemes mentioned in the options, such as PM-AASHA for crop protection [2] or rural development programs, Niryat Bandhu specifically targets human resource development in the export sector.
