Options:

945

930

990

958

Correct Answer:

930

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) → 930

India's sex ratio at birth (SRB) at the national level has improved from 918 in 2014-2015 to 930 in 2023-2024.

This data was highlighted in the Economic Survey 2023-2024 and confirmed by the Ministry of Women and Child Development. The improvement is largely attributed to the success of the Beti Bachao Beti Padhao (BBBP) scheme, which was launched in 2015 to address gender-biased sex selection and promote the education of the girl child.
