Why was central economic planning found to be difficult?
A.Multiplicity of States and Union Territories
B.Lack of coordination in different government departments
C.Autonomy given to the States in certain matters✓ Correct
D.Lack of will in implementing land reforms
Explanation
The passage explicitly states: 'the autonomy of the States rendered central economic planning extremely difficult.' Also, 'Land reforms remained under the control of the States' and 'many large-scale economic projects required a degree of cooperation between the Central Government and one or more of the States which it was found impossible to achieve.' The autonomy given to States in certain matters was the root cause. Hence (3) is correct.
