Correct Answer: D — 2 and 4
Explanation:
Row 2 is accepted because the L. C. Gupta Committee is associated with the roadmap for derivatives trading under SEBI. Row 4 is accepted because the Y. H. Malegam Committee is linked with microfinance reform under the RBI. Row 1 is rejected because the R. N. Malhotra Committee predates IRDAI and was not formed under it. Row 3 is rejected because the Urjit Patel Committee is associated with monetary policy and inflation-targeting reform, not housing-sector bank lending reform.
