Correct Answer: Fifth


Solution : The correct answer is Fifth .

Starting with the Fifth Five-Year Plan (1974-78), there was a significant shift from a welfare-based approach to a development-oriented one. Women's empowerment has been recognized as a crucial factor in assessing their status in this plan. The establishment of the National Commission for Women in 1990, mandated by Parliament, further highlights the government's commitment to safeguarding women's rights and legal entitlements.
