Explanation: 1 and 2 only Statement 1 is correct: The revised Anaemia Mukt Bharat Abhiyaan Operational Guidelines (2026) upgrade the earlier 6×6×6 framework to a 7×7×7 strategy, adding a seventh beneficiary group, a seventh intervention, and a seventh institutional mechanism. Statement 2 is correct: The guidelines introduce the T4 approach—Test, Treat, Talk, and Track—where ‘Track’ emphasizes systematic follow-up, referral, and digital monitoring of beneficiaries. Statement 3 is incorrect: The revised framework strengthens, rather than discontinues, digital monitoring. It envisages convergence of data from platforms such as the JANANI Portal, RBSK, and U-WIN into a unified AMB Abhiyaan Portal for comprehensive monitoring and evidence-based planning.
