The correct option is B Both statements 1 and 2 are correct.

India was always known all over the world for its system of joint families. However, with the wave of globalisation in India, it altered aspects of the family system in the country. And the system of joint families has changed into nuclear ones.
Indian society is riddled with large scale economic, social, educational and cultural inequalities. Curbing these disparities was the greatest challenge faced by independent India during its early years.
