सही उत्तर 1 January 2026 है। Source के अनुसार Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana यानी PMMVY ने 1 January 2026 को implementation के nine years complete किए। Scheme को 1 January 2017 को launch किया गया था और इसका उद्देश्य direct financial support के माध्यम से maternal health और nutrition improve करना है। Source PMMVY को Ministry of Women & Child Development के under एक Centrally Sponsored flagship scheme बताता है, जो socially और economically disadvantaged women के लिए है। Benefit structure exam के लिए बहुत important है। Source के अनुसार first child के लिए ₹5,000 cash benefit और second girl child के लिए ₹6,000 benefit दिया जाता है। Second girl child benefit girl-child support promote करता है। ₹5,000 benefit के two main instalments में pregnancy registration पर ₹3,000 और childbirth के बाद ₹2,000 दिए जाते हैं। Beneficiaries को PMMVY benefits के साथ Janani Suraksha Yojana यानी JSY के incentives भी मिलते हैं। Implementation scale भी important current-affairs point है। Source के अनुसार total enrolment 4.5 crore से अधिक women तक पहुँच चुका है और inception से ₹19,000 crore से अधिक disburse किया जा चुका है। Support checkups, medicine और nutrition जैसी needs में मदद करता है। Chronology याद रखें: launch → 1 January 2017; nine years completed → 1 January 2026। Ministry → Women & Child Development। Revision: PMMVY → maternal health + nutrition → disadvantaged women → ₹5,000 first child → ₹6,000 second girl child → ₹3,000 registration + ₹2,000 after childbirth → JSY benefits additionally → 4.5 crore+ enrolment → ₹19,000+ crore disbursement। इसलिए option A सही answer है।
