Answer 1

Hint: The Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) was recognized in the year 1995 and was reconstructed in the year 2000 with the union of the Department of Industrial Development. Prior, discrete Ministries of Small-Scale Industries & Agro and Rural Industries (SI & RI) and Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises (HI&PE) were formed in October 1999. The branch was formerly termed Department of Industrial Policy & Promotion and was retitled as DPIIT in January 2019.

Complete step-by-step answer:
The National Manufacturing Competitiveness Council (NMCC) has been established by the Government to offer an ongoing medium for strategy discourse to invigorate and withstand the development of industrial businesses in India. The Office of the National Manufacturing Competitiveness Council is a secondary bureau under the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion. The National Common Minimum Programme had recognized the requirement to have an ongoing medium comprising legislatures from Government, the Industry and the Academia for strategy discourse to invigorate and withstand the development of the industrial trade. Food dispensation, textiles and apparels, engineering, consumer goods, pharmaceuticals, capital goods, leather, and IT hardware are amongst the important matters precisely declared in the Common Minimum Programme.

Thus, option (C) is correct.

The purpose of the National Plan is to bring about conjunction in the numerous copies of growth of manufacturing groups by the Central Government and State Governments so as to impact improved cost-effectiveness and optimum application of resources.
