Correct answer: (C) Three

Explanation

SWAYAM is designed to achieve the three cardinal principles of education policy, namely access, equity and quality.

The option five overstates the count of these guiding principles.

The option four does not match the trio underpinning SWAYAM.

The option six wrongly inflates the number of cardinal principles.

SWAYAM offers online courses from Class 9 to post-graduation, free of cost, hosted by the Ministry of Education.

Its courses follow a four-quadrant approach: video lectures, reading material, self-assessment and an online discussion forum.
