The Rolling plan was implemented between which two five-year plans?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Fifth and Sixth.
The Rolling Plan was implemented between the Fifth and Sixth Five-Year Plans in India. After the Janata Party came to power in 1977, it abandoned the Fifth Plan mid-way and introduced the Rolling Plan concept for the period 1978-1980. This approach allowed for annual reassessment and adjustment of the plan based on the changing economic conditions, rather than adhering strictly to a fixed five-year period. The Sixth Five-Year Plan commenced in 1980, following the Rolling Plan phase.
