Q39: Under the Lead Bank Scheme, which group of individuals must be mandatorily invited to participate in the District Level Review Committee (DLRC) meetings?
✅ Correct Answer: C
The correct answer is local Members of Parliament, Members of Legislative Assembly, and Zilla Panchayat Chiefs.
Along with the normal members of the District Consultative Committee, this review group must include people from the State Minority Commission.
They must also include members from the SC/ST Corporations and people who receive rural loans.
To use local knowledge, the group can also invite forward-thinking farmers and local factory owners as special guests.

🧠 Real-World Scenario:
Imagine the banks in a district claim they are giving out plenty of agricultural loans. Suddenly, the local Member of Parliament (MP) attends the DLRC meeting and says the farmers in his village are getting nothing.
According to the rules, they can use this exact platform to expose the gap between bank data and ground reality. This means politicians and public leaders are mandatorily invited so banks cannot hide behind spreadsheets.
