Explanation:

The correct answer is option 3, meaning that both statements 1 and 2 are correct. The Nai Roshni Scheme is indeed a Central Sector Scheme for the leadership development of minority women, started in the year 2012-13 and it comes under the Ministry of Minority Affairs. The National Overseas Scholarship Scheme is also a Central Sector Scheme, providing assistance to students from Scheduled Castes, Denotified Nomadic and Semi-Nomadic Tribes, Landless Agricultural Labourers, and Traditional Artisans for pursuing higher studies abroad. Although I do not have the exact launch year, it is a longstanding program and could very well have been in place in 2008 or before.
