Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. enhance.

The sentence structure indicates that the Digital Saksharta Abhiyan (DISHA) or National Digital Literacy Mission (NDLM) Scheme aims to enhance the abilities of citizens who are not literate in information technology.

"Enhance" aligns with this objective, indicating the intention to elevate or boost their IT literacy levels.

It implies a positive progression from their current state of knowledge to a higher level of proficiency.

The word "engage" would imply involvement rather than improvement, while "train" suggests the initial process of learning rather than ongoing development.

"Present" does not convey the idea of skill improvement in this context.

Therefore, "enhance" is the most suitable choice.
