Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Principles of management establish cause and effect relationships (A), are mainly behavioural since they aim at influencing human behaviour (B), and are contingent, i.e., their application depends upon the prevailing situation (D). However, they are general guidelines, not specific ones, so (C) is incorrect. Hence (A), (B) and (D) only.
