With reference to the 'Pradhan Mantri Surakshit Matritva Abhiyan', consider the following statements : 1. This scheme guarantees a minimum package of antenatal care services to women in their second and third trimesters of pregnancy and six months post-delivery health care service in any government health facility. 2. Under this scheme, private sector health care providers of certain specialities can volunteer to provide services at nearby government health facilities. Which of the statements given above is/are correct ?

Direct description of PMSMA: it was launched to provide 'quality antenatal care' nationwide, with services provided on the ninth day of every month and an approach to ensure regular treatment.

A student could infer that a scheme promising regular, nationwide antenatal care likely defines a standard set of services; they should check official PMSMA guidelines (or compare with standard antenatal care checklists) to see if a minimum package is specified.

Example of another Pradhan Mantri scheme (PMFBY) listing 'salient features' and explicit coverage/entitlements, showing a pattern that central schemes often enumerate concrete components.

Using this pattern, a student might look for a similar 'salient features' or 'salient components' section in PMSMA documentation to confirm whether a minimum package is defined.

PM-AASHA is presented as an 'umbrella scheme' with clearly listed components—again indicating that government schemes commonly specify subcomponents and entitlements.

A student can reasonably expect PMSMA to follow the same documentation convention; absence of such a list in the snippet suggests the provided source doesn't state a guaranteed minimum package, so they should consult official scheme documents.

Describes PMSMA's stated aim as providing quality antenatal care, with services offered on the ninth day of every month and engagement of private practitioners at government facilities.

A student could note PMSMA's antenatal focus and monthly (9th-day) service design and therefore check if a separate postnatal six-month guarantee is mentioned elsewhere — absence would weaken the statement.

Gives an example (PMJJBY) of a Pradhan Mantri scheme that explicitly specifies duration/term (one-year insurance), showing that PM schemes commonly state time-limited guarantees when intended.

Using this pattern, a student can look for a similarly explicit duration statement for PMSMA; if none is present in PMSMA descriptions, it makes a six-month guaranteed postnatal service less likely.

Another description of PMJJBY that reiterates explicit temporal terms for a scheme (1-year), reinforcing the pattern that PM schemes normally define coverage periods when applicable.

Apply the same expectation to PMSMA descriptions: seek an explicit postnatal duration clause; its absence would be a relevant negative clue.

Shows an example (free LPG refills under a PM welfare package) where a precise short-term duration (3 months) is specified for benefits under a PM program.

A student can use this as another instance where durations are explicitly stated in program texts and thus expect PMSMA to explicitly state a six-month postnatal guarantee if it existed.

Describes PMFBY with clearly specified seasonal rates and terms, illustrating that government schemes often include detailed, explicit scope and time-bound features.

A student could therefore judge that absence of an explicit six-month postnatal clause in PMSMA material (which instead emphasizes antenatal monthly services) is an indirect reason to doubt the claimed guarantee.
