Ferrel Heady identifies major features of national bureaucracy in the developing society. These are

(i) The basic pattern of administration is Imitative.
(ii) Widespread discrepancy between Form and Reality.
(iii) Bureaucracy accepts directions from other legitimate branches of government.
(iv) The bureaucracies are deficient in skilled Manpower.
Select the correct answer by using the codes given below.
Codes :

  • A.(i), (ii) and (iii)
  • B.(i), (ii) and (iv)
  • C.(ii), (iii) and (iv)
  • D.(i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)

Answer: B

Heady lists as features of bureaucracy in developing societies: the pattern of administration is imitative, there is a wide gap between form and reality, and the bureaucracy is short of skilled manpower (i, ii and iv).

Statement (iii) is not one of them. In such countries the bureaucracy is typically not under effective control by other legitimate branches of government, so it does not simply accept direction from them. Options with (iii) are wrong.
