SSC CHSL 2023 PYQ — Question 37

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Central assistant for states and union territories.

Non-plan revenue expenditure includes recurring costs that the government has to meet regularly, such as salaries and pensions, subsidies, and defence services, all of which are part of the regular functioning of the government. However, Central assistance for states and union territories is considered a transfer to other levels of government and is typically included in the plan expenditure, not in the non-plan revenue expenditure.
