पर्यायी उत्तरे :

The correct answer is Option C (Statement (c) is false).

Key Points:
• Gender Budgeting is an analytical public finance tool to monitor budget allocations through a gender perspective.
• Statement (a) is true: The Economic Survey of 2000-01 for the first time emphasized the necessity of examining gender-specific dimensions of the budget.
• Statement (b) is true: An expert group led by Dr. Ashok Lahiri (Chief Economic Adviser) was established by the Ministry of Finance to provide a framework for gender budgeting and economic classification in India (submitting its report in 2004).
• Statement (c) is false: The Gender Budgeting process was formally institutionalized and incorporated into the Union Budget of India in FY 2005-06, featuring Statement 20 (now Statement 13 in Expenditure Profile) with Part A (100% women-specific schemes) and Part B (at least 30% women-specific allocation).
• The question asks which option accurately identifies false statements. Since statement (c) is distinctly false, Option 3 is correct.
• Key Takeaway: Gender budgeting in India was introduced in 2005-06 following the recommendations of the Dr. Ashok Lahiri Committee.
