Solution
The correct option is C Economic development Caste system or social stratification of people has been prevalent in India since Vedic times. The end of Colonial rule brought about a modern development in an urge to eliminate caste inequalities and secure equal opportunities to all people. Irrespective of caste people can seem to engage in works where they can earn their daily bread. Economic development and equal participation eliminated caste disparities to an extent in India.
