खालीलपैकी कोणते नियोजन मंडळाचे दीर्घमुदत उद्दिष्ट नाही ?

The correct answer is Option B (Enhance concentration of economic power).

Key Points:
• The correct option is (2).
• Objectives of Indian Five-Year Plans:
• The Planning Commission was established in March 1950 with long-term strategic developmental goals:
• 1. Growth (उत्पादनात वाढ): Expanding national and per capita output across agriculture, industry, and services.
• 2. Modernization: Technological advancements and structural institutional transformation.
• 3. Self-Reliance: Minimizing external economic vulnerability.
• 4. Equity & Social Justice (विषमता कमी करणे): Mitigating income disparity, preventing monopolistic wealth accumulation, and working towards full employment.
• The directive principles (Article 39) explicitly mandate preventing the concentration of wealth and economic power. Therefore, 'enhancing concentration of economic power' directly contradicts the fundamental tenets of Indian economic planning.
• Key Takeaway: Indian economic planning aims to disperse economic power, not enhance its concentration.
