- A1 only
- B2 only
- CBoth 1 and 2
- DNeither 1 nor 2
Explanation
The Nandini Sahakar Scheme is NCDC's women-focused framework of financial assistance, project formulation, handholding and capacity development aimed at assisting women cooperatives in business model-based activities under NCDC's purview, so statement 1 is correct. The scheme's official NCDC document and a PIB release both state explicitly that 'there is no minimum or maximum limit on financial assistance to projects by women cooperatives', so statement 2 is also correct. Hence both statements are correct.
