Solution

The correct option is A

Rural poor


In the rural sector, poor people lack basic literacy and skills. They are isolated and are unable to find alternative employment elsewhere. Hence, these rural poor work mainly as landless agricultural labourers, cultivators with small landholdings and are engaged in a variety of non-agricultural jobs.
