Explanation: The fifth plan (1974–79) has its focus on poverty alleviation and self-reliance.

The popular rhetoric of poverty alleviation was sensationalized by the government to the extent of launching a fresh plan, i.e., the Twenty-point Programme (1975) with a marginal importance being given to the objective of ‘growth with stability’ (one of the major objectives of the Fourth Plan).
