Correct Answer - Option 1 : 1978

Explanation

A conference of the chief engineers of all the states and provinces was convened in 1943 by the government of India at Nagpur, at the initiative of the Indian Roads Congress to finalize the first road development plan for the country as a whole.

This is the landmark in the history of road development in India, as it was the first attempt to prepare a coordinated road development programme in a planned manner. At the end of this plan, the target road length aimed at was 16 km per 100 square km area of the country.

The first 20-year plan is also known as the Nagpur road plan. It classified the roads in India based on location and function into the following five categories:

1. National Highways

2. State Highways

3. Major District roads

4. Other District roads

5. Village Roads.

While National Transport Policy committee is appointed by the government of India in the year 1978 to prepare a national transport policy for the country for the next decade.
