Attempt This Question
Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (c) 2 and 5 only
National Development Council (NDC) was the apex body that approved Five-Year Plans, and Parliament debated and formally adopted plan documents, so 2 and 5 are associated with planning. The Finance Commission deals with tax devolution, while the Rural and Urban Development ministries merely implement sectoral schemes, not national planning. Hence only 2 and 5 are correct.
