Answer: C

Notes:

Explanation: NIP is hosted on the Invest India Grid (IIG) platform and provides opportunities for States/UTs and Ministries to collate all major infrastructure projects at a single location.

· IIG thus acts as a centralized portal to track and review project progress across all economic and social infrastructure sub-sectors.

· The portal also enables project-sponsoring authorities to showcase investment opportunities to national and international investors.

· Project Monitoring Group (PMG) is an institutional mechanism put in place by the government for resolution of issues related to large-scale projects.
