The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Statement I: the Planning Commission of India was set up in March 1950 (the First Five Year Plan began in 1951), not in 1952, so Statement I is false.
Statement II: NITI Aayog was formed on 1 January 2015 and replaced the Planning Commission, so Statement II is true.
Hence Statement I is false and Statement II is true.
Answer: (4) Statement I is false but Statement II is true
