[amp_mcq option1=”Prof. Mahalanbis” option2=”Prof. Cirrus” option3=”Prof. Ghosh” option4=”Prof. Shah” correct=”option1″]<\/p>\n

The correct answer is A. Prof. Mahalanobis.<\/p>\n

Prof. P.C. Mahalanobis was an Indian statistician and economist who is considered to be the father of Indian planning. He was appointed by the government of India as the first chairman of the ‘national income committee’ in 1949. The committee was tasked with estimating the national income of India and making recommendations for its future development.<\/p>\n

Prof. Mahalanobis’s work on the national income committee was instrumental in shaping the Indian economy in the post-independence period. His recommendations for economic planning were based on the idea of self-reliance and the use of science and technology to promote development.<\/p>\n

Prof. Mahalanobis’s work has had a lasting impact on the Indian economy. His ideas on planning and development continue to be influential today.<\/p>\n

Option B, Prof. Cirrus, is incorrect. Prof. Cirrus is not a real person.<\/p>\n

Option C, Prof. Ghosh, is incorrect. Prof. Ghosh is a real person, but he was not appointed by the government of India as the first chairman of the ‘national income committee’.<\/p>\n
