PMMSY stands for Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana.
Launched in May 2020 by the Ministry of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying, Government of India, under the Atmanirbhar Bharat package.
With a total financial outlay of $\text{Rs. } 20,050\text{ crores}$ over five years ($2020-21\text{ to } 2024-25$), it is the largest-ever investment program in India's fisheries sector, aimed at bridging gaps in fish production, productivity, quality, technology, post-harvest infrastructure, and fishers' welfare.
In fisheries households and communities, access to the five core livelihood capitals (natural, physical, financial, human, and social capital) under the Sustainable Livelihoods Framework is markedly gender-differentiated.
Men typically control primary harvest assets (boats, motors, offshore access, institutional credit).
Women dominate post-harvest processing, drying, value-addition, and local marketing, often facing limited formal credit, insecure shore land tenure, and domestic burdens.
Consequently, men and women face distinctly different challenges in establishing and sustaining resilient livelihoods.
Correct Option: Option 1 (Men and women face different challenges in creating and maintaining sustainable livelihoods).
