    D Third Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The Third Five-Year Plan (1961–66) experienced a negative growth rate in agricultural production. While it initially focused on agricultural improvement, challenges such as the Sino-Indian War in 1962 and the India-Pakistan War in 1965 shifted priorities to defense. These disruptions, combined with adverse weather, led to a decline in agricultural output.
