Solution
The correct option is C National Sample Survey Organization
The National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO) was set up in 1950,
with the idea of having a permanent survey organization to collect data on
various facets of the economy. In order to assist
in socio-economic planning and policy making, NSSO conducts nationwide sample
surveys known as National Sample Survey (NSS). The NSS is a continuing survey in the sense
that it is carried out in the form of successive “rounds”, each round usually
of a year's duration covering several topics of current interest. The surveys are conducted through household
interviews, using a random sample of households covering practically the entire
geographical area of the country.
