C
Correct answer
Explanation
This requires knowledge of the chronological sequence of tribal development commissions in India. The P. Shilu Ao Commission (3) was established in the 1960s. The U.N. Dhebar Commission (1) on Scheduled Areas and Scheduled Tribes was set up in 1960-61. The Verrier Elwin Committee (4) on Multipurpose Tribal Blocks was formed in 1957-58. The Task Force under Prof. Vidyarathi (2) came later. The correct sequence 3-1-4-2 aligns with the historical timeline of these initiatives.
