The correct answer is option 1, the Balwant Rai Mehta Committee. The Balwant Rai Mehta Committee was formed in 1957 to study the community development program in India and make recommendations for improving the system. The committee recommended the establishment of a three-tier Panchayat Raj system, consisting of gram panchayats at the village level, panchayat samitis at the block level, and zilla parishads at the district level. This system aimed to decentralize power and promote local self-governance in rural areas. The Balwant Rai Mehta Committee`s recommendations were instrumental in the implementation of the Panchayat Raj system across India, with the passage of the 73rd Amendment to the Constitution in 1992.
