Correct answer: (c) 8%
Explanation
The Tenth Five-Year Plan (2002–07) set a target of 8% GDP growth a year, along with targets to reduce poverty and create jobs. Actual growth came close to the target, at a little under 8% a year.
For comparison, the Eleventh Plan (2007–12) aimed at 9% and the Twelfth (2012–17) at 8%.
