    Solution

    The Mukhyamantri Maiyaan Samman Yojana, recently renamed from the Jharkhand Behan Beti Swavalamban Protsahan Yojana, is a scheme designed to empower women in Jharkhand by improving their education, health, and nutritional status through financial support. Eligible women within the age range of 21 to 50 years and with an annual income below Rs 8 lakhs will receive Rs 1000 per month. This initiative directly supports the beneficiaries' ability to access better educational and health resources, thereby promoting their overall empowerment and well-being. The scheme is not focused on employment, housing, transportation, or agricultural subsidies, making option B the correct answer.
