How many types of permissible works does the Viksit Gram Panchayat Plan framework identify?
- A.184
- B.262
- C.318
- D.404
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 318. The Viksit Gram Panchayat Plan framework identifies 318 types of permissible works, spread across the four thematic areas of water security, core rural infrastructure, livelihood-related infrastructure and the mitigation of extreme weather events. Options A, B and D carry figures of 184, 262 and 404 respectively, none of which appears in the framework; they are included because a plausible three-digit distractor is exactly what a paper setter uses here. The plan itself is worth knowing in detail: it is participatory and evidence-based, prepared with the Gram Sabha and Gram Panchayat and approved by the Gram Sabha, and it starts from an inventory of assets already created under central and state programmes so that duplication is avoided. Geospatial tools such as Yuktdhara and PM Gati Shakti support the gap assessment, and the plans are consolidated at block, district, state and national level, where they feed the Viksit Bharat National Rural Infrastructure Stack.
