Correct Answer: Businessmen and industrialists


Solution : The correct answer is (a) businessmen and industrialists. 

It was put forth by a group of leading industrialists and economists from Bombay (now Mumbai) in 1944. The plan aimed to outline a comprehensive strategy for industrialization, infrastructure development, and economic growth in post-independence India. The key proponents of the Bombay Plan included prominent industrialists such as J.R.D. Tata, G.D. Birla, and A.D. Shroff, who sought to shape India's economic policies and promote industrialization in the country.
