  2. B.Sabki Yojana, Sabka Vikas
  3. C.Mera Gaon, Mera Gaurav
  4. D.Gaon Chalo, Yojana Banao

Correct answer

B. Sabki Yojana, Sabka Vikas

Explanation

The correct answer is Sabki Yojana, Sabka Vikas. The Secretary of the Ministry of Panchayati Raj said at the workshop that the People's Plan Campaign has been run by the Ministry since 2018 under this theme, and that it has grown into a framework for preparing Gram, Block and District Panchayat Development Plans, localising the Sustainable Development Goals and bringing schemes and resources together. Option A alters the familiar words of a different slogan and is not the campaign's theme. Option C names a separate rural outreach idea and has no link with this campaign's planning cycle. Option D is an invented phrase of the kind placed to catch a candidate who recalls only the shape of the slogan. The theme is worth memorising exactly, because the campaign's name, its theme and the year it started are all examinable, and the words carry the campaign's logic: every household's plan feeding into everyone's development.
