Answer 1

Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true, but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

Explanation:

Family planning is part of the wider effort to achieve reproductive health, and RCH programmes raise awareness about reproductive topics. However, the awareness provided by RCH programmes does not explain the purpose of the family-planning programme.
