खालीलपैकी कोणते विधान/ने बरोबर आहे/त ?
(a) 1880 चा लॉर्ड रिपनच्या ठरावास स्थानिक शासनाची सनद (मॅग्ना कार्टा) मानले जाते.
(b) बलवंत राय मेहता समिती अहवालात ग्रामसभेचा अधिकृतरित्या उल्लेख करण्यात आला.
(c) बलवंत राय मेहता समितीच्या शिफारशीनुसार जिल्हाधिकारी हा जिल्हापरिषदेत असू नये.
पर्यायी उत्तरे :

The correct answer is Option D (None of the above).

Key Points:
• Statement (a) is incorrect: The famous resolution on local self-government introduced by Viceroy Lord Ripon was passed in 1882 (specifically on 18th May 1882), not 1880. It is celebrated as the 'Magna Carta' of local self-government in India, earning Lord Ripon the title 'Father of Local Self-Government in India'.
• Statement (b) is incorrect: The Balwant Rai Mehta Committee (1957) recommended a three-tier Panchayati Raj structure (Gram Panchayat, Panchayat Samiti, and Zilla Parishad) but did not make a formal institutional mention of the Gram Sabha; it was the Diwakar Committee (1963) and later the Ashok Mehta Committee (1978) that gave prominent institutional focus to the Gram Sabha.
• Statement (c) is incorrect: Contrary to keeping the Collector out, the Balwant Rai Mehta Committee specifically recommended that the District Collector should be the Chairman of the Zilla Parishad to ensure administrative coordination.
• Since statements (a), (b), and (c) are all factually incorrect, the correct choice is 'None of the above' (Option 4).
• Key Takeaway: Ripon's Resolution was passed in 1882, Balwant Rai Mehta did not emphasize Gram Sabha, and he recommended the Collector chair the Zilla Parishad.
