    Consider the following statements regarding the role of institutions in the formulation and implementation of 'Public Policy' in India:

    1. AOnly 1 and 2
    2. BOnly 1, 3 and 4
    3. COnly 2 and 4
    4. D1, 2, 3 and 4
    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: B

    The Cabinet Secretariat works under the Prime Minister as the apex policy-coordination hub (1), lateral entry brings in private-sector experts (3), and parliamentary standing committees scrutinise ministries' policies and spending (4). Statement 2 is wrong because NITI Aayog replaced the Planning Commission, not the National Development Council, and its Governing Council hasn't formally abolished the NDC.
