{'expenditure': [2, 0, 2, 4], 'budgetary approval': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'consolidated fund': [1, 0, 0, 3], 'contingency fund': [1, 0, 1, 0], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13], 'defence': [5, 0, 4, 15]}

The correct answer is option 2: Natural calamities. In India, the expenditure made on natural calamities does not require budgetary approval every year.

Option 1: Defence expenditure does require budgetary approval every year as it is a significant component of the government`s expenses.

Option 4: The contingency fund is a reserve fund maintained by the government for unforeseen expenses. The expenditure from this fund also requires budgetary approval.
