• D. None of these

Answer 1

Answer:

C. National Commission on agriculture

• The National Commission on Agriculture (NCA) recommended the conversion of large-sized credit societies into Service Co-operative Societies.

  The NCA, established in 1970, aimed to review India's agricultural sector and suggest reforms. One of its key recommendations was to reorganize and strengthen co-operative credit institutions.

  Specifically, the NCA suggested:

  1. Merging small, weaker credit societies.

  2. Converting large credit societies into Service Co-operative Societies.

  3. Expanding services beyond credit to include inputs, marketing, and other support.
