The correct answer is option 1, Article 243 ZD. This article of the Indian Constitution deals with the constitution of the District Planning Committee (DPC). The DPC is established at the district level and is responsible for creating a development plan for the district. It consists of members from various levels of government including the Members of Parliament (MPs) and Members of Legislative Assembly (MLAs) representing the district, and the chairpersons of the Panchayats and Municipalities in the district. The DPC plays a crucial role in the decentralized planning process and ensures that the development plans are inclusive and representative of the needs and priorities of the district.
