keywords: 

{'integrated power development scheme': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'components': [1, 1, 3, 6], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13], 'component': [1, 1, 1, 7], 'rural areas': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'urban areas': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'distribution networks': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'government': [5, 0, 0, 1], 'consumers': [0, 0, 0, 1]}

The correct answer is option 1, which states that only component 1 is a part of the Integrated Power Development Scheme launched by the Government of India.

To understand this, let`s dissect the options:

Option 1: It states that strengthening of sub-transmission and distribution networks in the urban areas is a component of the scheme. This means that the scheme includes activities to improve the infrastructure related to electricity transmission and distribution in urban areas.

Option 2: It states that metering of distribution transformers/feeders/consumers in the rural areas is a component of the scheme. This means that the scheme includes activities to install meters for monitoring electricity consumption in rural areas.

Option 3: It states that both options 1 and 2 are components of the scheme. However, this is incorrect as the correct answer mentioned is option 1.

Option 4: It states that neither option 1 nor option 2 is a component of the scheme. However, this is also incorrect as option 1 is indeed a component of the scheme.

In conclusion, the explanation clarifies that only component 1, which is strengthening of sub-transmission and distribution networks in the urban areas, is a part of the Integrated Power Development Scheme launched by the Government of India.
