  • Centralized NDMA decision-making
  • Decentralized authority with empowered DDMAs, devolved resources, and vertical/horizontal coordination mechanisms✔️
  • Provincial autonomy without federal coordination
  • International agency management
Correct Answer Explanation
Sections 4.1 and 4.3 emphasize decentralization with empowered districts, devolved resources, and strong coordination mechanisms. The three-tier system (NDMA-PDMA-DDMA) succeeds when districts have authority and resources while maintaining coordination across levels.
