Correct answer: B

Concept

For a quotation-attribution question, the governing method is to identify the wording in its documented source. When the item is a previous-year examination question, the commission’s final answer key is the canonical scoring authority; broad summaries of a leader’s ideology serve only as a cross-check.

Application

  1. The source paper is the BPSC 2024 Computer paper, Set I, question 69.

  2. The BPSC revised final answer key records the response that maps to Jawaharlal Nehru for that exact set and question number.

  3. Accordingly, the accepted response for this previous-year question is Jawaharlal Nehru.

Cross-check and contrast

  • Gandhi’s economic thought emphasized village self-reliance and trusteeship.

  • Nehru is ordinarily associated with democratic socialism, planning and a mixed economy.

  • Bose advocated socialist reconstruction and strong state planning.

This ideological cross-check makes the stem’s wording historically awkward, and the same sentence also appears in a critical essay discussing Gandhi. The official BPSC key nevertheless remains the controlling answer for this PYQ, so the discrepancy should be understood as a source-versus-key caveat rather than hidden by the explanation.

Result

For examination scoring, the answer is Jawaharlal Nehru.
