The correct answer is A. Poverty Estimation.
The Tendulkar Committee was a committee set up by the Government of India in 2005 to review the methodology for estimating poverty in India. The committee was headed by Suresh Tendulkar, a former member of the Planning Commission. The committee submitted its report in 2009, and the new poverty line based on the committee’s recommendations was adopted by the government in 2011.
The committee’s report was based on a comprehensive review of the existing literature on poverty estimation in India. The committee also conducted extensive field surveys to collect data on household consumption expenditure. The committee’s report made a number of recommendations for improving the methodology for estimating poverty in India. These recommendations included using a more comprehensive measure of household consumption expenditure, taking into account the cost of education and health care, and using a more representative sample of households.
The Tendulkar Committee’s report has been widely praised for its comprehensiveness and its rigor. The report has also been influential in shaping the government’s policies on poverty alleviation.

- C. Export Promotion is a government policy. The Tendulkar Committee is not concerned with export promotion.
- D. Fiscal Policy Reforms are a set of economic policies. The Tendulkar Committee is not concerned with fiscal policy reforms.
