Correct answer: All of the above

Explanation: āœ… Correct Answer: D. All of the above šŸ“š Explanation: The 'Kanyashree' scheme in West Bengal generally has a family income limit for eligibility. However, this ceiling is waived if the girl is 'physically challenged', has 'lost both parents', or is an 'inmate of a juvenile home' (JJ Home). These exemptions ensure that the most vulnerable girls receive the benefits of the scheme without any financial hurdle. The scheme aims to prevent child marriage and promote higher education for girls.
