Solution
The correct option is B Fifth Five Year Plan
The Fifth Five-Year Plan laid stress on employment, poverty alleviation (Garibi Hatao), and justice. The plan also focused on self-reliance in agricultural production and
defence. In 1978 the newly elected Morarji
Desai government rejected the
plan. The Electricity Supply Act was amended in 1975, which enabled the central
government to enter into power generation and transmission.
The Indian
national highway system was
introduced and many roads were widened to accommodate the increasing traffic. Tourism also expanded. The twenty-point
programme was launched in 1975. It was followed from 1974 to 1979.
