    Solution

    Explanation:  
    The Krishnaswamy Committee (1980) played a landmark role by recommending that PSL targets be set at 40% by 1985 , with specific sub-targets for agriculture and weaker sections. Prior to this, the Gadgil and Nariman Committees (1969) laid the groundwork through the Lead Bank Scheme, while the Informal Study Group (1971) formalized PSL in 1972 without explicit targets.
