Explanation:

The Army’s ambitious plan for modernisation of the Army Base Workshops (ABWs) and implementation of ‘Government-owned, contractor-operated (GOCO)’ model is “delayed”.

ABWs carry out repairs and overhaul of weapons, vehicles and equipment of the Army. The GOCO model was meant to modernize the workshops as well free up Army personnel from maintenance work.
Under the proposed Government-Owned Contractor-Operated (GOCO) model, private contractors were to operate the army’s base workshops that repair and overhaul equipment from guns and vehicles to tanks and helicopters.
The GOCO model was one of the recommendations of the Lt. Gen. DB Shekatkar (Retd.) committee to “enhance combat capability and re-balancing defence expenditure.”
Maintenance of complete infrastructure will be thereafter the responsibility of the service provider.

Hence option 1st is correct.
