Correct Answer:

Both assertion and reason are correct, and the reason is a correct explanation.

 


Solution : The correct answer is: (a) Both assertion and reason are correct, and the reason is a correct explanation.

The assertion that planning ensures the effective use of resources is correct. Planning involves the process of setting goals, defining strategies, and allocating resources in a way that optimizes their utilization to achieve the desired outcomes.

The reason stating that planning identifies potential wastage of resources and eliminates them is a correct explanation. One of the key purposes of planning is to anticipate potential inefficiencies, identify areas of wastage, and take corrective actions to eliminate or minimize such wastage. Effective planning involves careful consideration of resource allocation to prevent unnecessary costs and enhance efficiency.

Therefore, both the assertion and the reason are correct, and the reason provides a correct explanation for the assertion.
