(D). National Commission on Agriculture

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. (A), (B), (C), (D).
• B. (D), (A), (B), (C).

• D. (C), (B), (D), (A).

Hint:

Land reforms timeline: Kumarappa (1949) $\to$ Central Land Reforms (1950s) $\to$ National Commission (1970s) $\to$ Agricultural Policy (2000).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: National Agricultural Policy (2000) is the most recent, so it must be last; this rules out options (1) and (4).
Step 2: Kumarappa Committee (1949) predates the Central Land Reforms Committee (early 1950s), so (B) precedes (A); this rules out option (2).
Step 3: The remaining order (B), (A), (D), (C) confirms option (3) is correct.
