A Correct answer
Explanation

The Prime Minister serves as the ex-officio Chairperson of the Planning Commission by constitutional convention. This is because the Planning Commission is an executive body that requires political leadership at the highest level for effective coordination. The Vice President and President have constitutional roles that preclude them from heading such executive commissions.
