Solution

The correct option is C Neighbours and friends
In cities, people depend on neighbours and friends for financial help on various occasions like marriage, birthday, the inauguration of shops, purchasing of small household appliances etc. Neighbours and friends are reliable and they don't charge any interest on money. Neighbours and friends act as a member of the family so they don't refuse to give money.
