Correct option is B

The NIN/ICMR dietary guidelines under My Plate for the Day recommend daily intake levels for different food groups to ensure a balanced diet:
Fruits → About 150 g/day are recommended to provide vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and dietary fiber. Hence, 1 → D.
Fats and oils → About 25–30 g/day (average taken as 27 g) to meet energy and essential fatty acid requirements without increasing risk of obesity or cardiovascular disease. Hence, 2 → B.
Pulses & flesh foods → About 90 g/day to provide proteins and micronutrients like iron and zinc. Hence, 3 → A.
Nuts and seeds → About 30 g/day are recommended to provide healthy fats, protein, and micronutrients. Hence, 4 → C.
Correct matching: 1 – D (150) 2 – B (27) 3 – A (90) 4 – C (30)
Thus, the correct answer is Option (b).
