अर्थसंकल्पातील विकासोत्तर खर्चामध्ये खालीलपैकी कशाचा समावेश होतो ? a. पेन्शन b. व्याजाची परतफेड c. शिक्षण d. प्रशासकीय सेवा योग्य पर्याय निवडा :
This MPSC previous-year question is drawn from MPSC Group B Combined Pre 2026 (Marathi). It belongs to the Economics section and is reproduced here in Marathi exactly as it appeared in the official Maharashtra Public Service Commission paper, along with the four options, the official Set A answer key and a compact explanation of why the correct option is correct.
Correct answer: B
Explanation
पडताळलेले उत्तर पर्याय B आहे. विकासेतर खर्चात निवृत्तिवेतन, व्याज प्रदान व प्रशासकीय सेवा (अ, ब, ड) येतात — जो थेट मालमत्ता वा उत्पादन निर्माण करत नाही. शिक्षण (क) हा विकास खर्च, म्हणून अ, ब व ड हा संच.
Why this question matters
MPSC's answer-key process — including the objection round after every paper — means the official Set A answer keys we use are the authoritative reference for questions like this. When you see a discrepancy between two coaching-institute keys, the official MPSC revised key (which we track) is the source of truth. Anchoring your revision on the official key prevents second-guessing on the day of the actual exam.
How to attempt this in the exam
Do the arithmetic on scratch paper even for one-step economics numericals. The most common wrong answer in MPSC's numerical items is a rounding error or a unit mismatch, not a conceptual mistake. Writing each step out costs ten seconds and prevents the majority of those errors.
Subject-specific tip
Tip for Economics: connect every scheme to a launch year, the implementing ministry and the primary beneficiary. MPSC Economics options often swap the launch year or the implementing ministry — that is the easiest elimination.
Union budget and Maharashtra state finance
Union budget items appear in every MPSC prelim. The three headline numbers to remember for the current cycle: total receipts, total expenditure and fiscal deficit as a percentage of GDP. Under FRBM the medium-term target is a fiscal deficit of 3 percent of GDP and a debt-to-GDP ratio of 40 percent for the Union — MPSC has repeatedly asked which target got revised in which post-pandemic budget.
Maharashtra's own budget mirrors this pattern at the state level: state's own tax revenue, share in central taxes, grants-in-aid from the Union, borrowings under FRBMA, and the sectoral allocation. The state's flagship expenditure programmes tend to cluster around irrigation (Krishna Marathwada, Konkan, Vidarbha regional projects), highway upgrades (Samruddhi Mahamarg, Coastal Road), and education (Right to Education implementation, the Mukhyamantri Mahila Sashaktikaran Abhiyan). Our Economics Yojana notes on the Notes tab walk through the largest Union and state schemes side by side.
For every scheme discussed in a MPSC paper, note the associated ministry code — MoRD (Rural Development) for MGNREGA and PMAY-Gramin, MoHUA (Housing and Urban Affairs) for PMAY-Urban and DAY-NULM, MoA&FW (Agriculture) for PM-Kisan and PMFBY, MoFin (Finance) for PMJDY and PM-SVANidhi, MoHFW (Health) for PM-JAY and Mission Indradhanush. This ministry-to-scheme mapping is the single most useful shortcut in MPSC Economics.
