The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
The institution that was renamed as "Niti Aayog" is actually the "Planning Commission of India", not the "Government Policy Commission".
The Planning Commission was established in 1950 for the assessment and allocation of resources for the better implementation of India’s five-year plans but was replaced by Niti Aayog in 2015. Niti Aayog or the National Institution for Transforming India focuses on fostering cooperative federalism through structured support initiatives and mechanisms with the states and facilitating government policy strategies.
