Which of the following can aid in furthering the Government’s objective of inclusive growth? 1. Promoting Self-Help Groups. 2. Promoting Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises. 3. Implementing the Right to Education Act Select the Correct answer using the codes given below :

Inclusive growth aims to ensure that the benefits of economic development reach all sections of society, particularly the marginalized. Promoting Self-Help Groups (SHGs) fosters financial inclusion and empowers women, which is a core pillar of the Indian model of inclusive growth [2]. Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are critical as they are the second-largest employment providers after agriculture, promoting balanced regional development and entrepreneurship among marginalized communities [7]. Furthermore, implementing the Right to Education (RTE) Act is essential for human capital formation, as education is a primary tool for breaking the poverty trap and ensuring equitable access to economic opportunities [5]. Together, these measures address the key components of inclusive growth: rural investment, employment generation, and public spending on education [1]. Therefore, all three initiatives directly further the government's objective of inclusive growth.
