Before the Plan/Non-Plan classification was abolished (2017-18), Non-Plan Expenditure comprised the government’s committed, recurring outlays such as defence services, interest on public debt, salaries & pensions of employees and subsidies (food, fertiliser, fuel, etc.). Hence all four items listed fall under Non-Plan Expenditure. ([licchavilyceum.com](https://licchavilyceum.com/upsc-prelims-2014-solved-question-paper/?utm_source=openai))
