Launching of Community Development Programme (CDP): This was started in October 1952 as a multi-project programme aimed at the overall development of rural people. 3. Recommendation of Democratic Decentralization: The need for democratic decentralization was recommended by Balwant Rai Mehta in 1957, which aimed to decentralize the administration and empower local bodies. 4. Setting up of District Rural Development Agency (DRDA): The DRDA was established at the district level to manage and oversee the implementation of anti-poverty programmes, and it was introduced in 1999. Thus, the correct order is III, I, II, IV.
