Solution

The correct option is C 1921

The year 1921 is referred to as a “year of the great divide” in the demographic history of India. It is when the mortality started to decline which lead to an acceleration in the rate of population growth. Also, during the next three decades (1921-51) the population growth rate continued at a level of over one per cent per annum.

Thus, the correct answer is C.
