The correct answer is option 2, Ministry of Environment and Forests. The Eco-Mark scheme was launched by this ministry for labelling consumer products.

Option 1, Ministry of Agro and Rural Industries, is not the correct answer. This ministry primarily focuses on the development of rural areas and the agro-based industries, and does not have a direct connection to the Eco-Mark scheme.

Similarly, option 3, Ministry of Food Processing Industries, is also not the correct answer. This ministry deals with the promotion and development of food processing industries in the country, and does not have a role in the Eco-Mark scheme.

Option 4, Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution, is also not the correct answer. While this ministry concerns itself with consumer affairs and food distribution, it is not directly responsible for the Eco-Mark scheme.

In conclusion, the correct ministry that launched the Eco-Mark scheme for labelling consumer products is the Ministry of Environment and Forests.
