Asha Mahila Mandal, a village society, decides that every major spending decision will be taken only after a general meeting where women members vote, instead of by the president alone. Which element of social governance is most directly strengthened?
Participation of stakeholders in decision-making is strengthened. Shifting major spending decisions from the president alone to a general meeting where members vote gives affected people a voice, a central feature of social governance, and it does not change audit, registration or legal form.
- AParticipation of stakeholders in decision-makingCorrect
- BReduction of statutory audit requirements
- CConversion of the society into a company
- DExemption from registration
Explanation
Moving decisions from one person to a members' meeting with voting broadens involvement of those affected, which is participation. The facts say nothing about audit, conversion or registration, so those options do not follow.
