Umbrella Schemes + District Administration Convergence
Poshan 2.0 and Mission Vatsalya rely on district administration (DM/Collector) for grassroots execution, making administrative convergence a critical link for GS Paper II governance questions.
Mission Shakti's sub-schemes (Sambal vs Samarthya) and Poshan 2.0 targets are classic match-the-column or statement-based prelims traps.
