The correct answer is
All India Rural Credit Review Committee
Rural Credit Review Committee Recommendation
The establishment of agencies like the Small Farmers Development Agency (SFDA) and the Rural Electrification Corporation (REC) was a significant step towards addressing rural development needs in India.
The All India Rural Credit Review Committee, constituted in 1966, was instrumental in recommending the creation of these specialized agencies.
Committee's Rationale
- The committee recognized the need for dedicated institutions to tackle the specific challenges faced by small and marginal farmers.
- It also highlighted the importance of rural electrification for agricultural and overall economic development.
- Based on these observations, the committee proposed the setting up of SFDA to provide integrated support to small farmers and REC to accelerate rural electrification programs.
Therefore, the All India Rural Credit Review Committee is credited with the recommendation for setting up SFDA and REC.
