Q1Who wrote the book 'Planned Economy for India'?

A M. Visvesvaraya
B Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru
C Mahatma Gandhi
D Manmohan Singh
Explanation

M. Visvesvaraya, the engineer-statesman associated with modern industrial planning, wrote 'Planned Economy for India' in the 1930s. The book argued for planned industrialisation and a stronger economic role for the state. Jawaharlal Nehru strongly favoured planning later, but he did not write this book. Mahatma Gandhi's economic ideas centred on village industries and self-reliance rather than this title. Manmohan Singh was an economist and later Prime Minister, but he belongs to a much later policy period.
