Solution

The correct option is C Mahatma Gandhi
Mahatma Gandhi had great faith in the system of public administration, and believed that it would be beneficial to everyone in a modern democratic nation. He emphasised on the protection of the interests of all citizens through public administration, especially those of the marginalised sections of society. His concept of Gram Swaraj influenced India’s policies on public administration. The institutions of local self-government in towns and villages today were largely inspired by this idea.
