What is the importance of taking services to vulnerable groups in the National Population Policy?

Correct answer: It can reduce social inequality

Direct answer: Option A is correct because reaching vulnerable groups can reduce social inequality. Vulnerable people may face poverty, distance, discrimination, lack of information or limited access to hospitals and other services. If population-policy services such as health care, counselling, education and family-welfare support are made available to them, more people can make informed choices and receive necessary care. This makes the policy inclusive rather than limited to people who already have money and facilities. Option B is wrong because the purpose is not to benefit only the rich; extending services to vulnerable groups specifically widens access. Option C is wrong because better access makes health services more useful, not useless. Option D is wrong because receiving services does not remove the importance of education; education remains essential for awareness and informed decisions. Memory cue: inclusion means reaching those who are usually left behind.
