Solution

The correct option is B Bhutan
<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Per capita income and Physical Quality of Life are a few indicators that show a country's development. However, these factors fail to measure one of the most important aspects of human life, happiness. Bhutan was the first country to introduce a tool to measure happiness, which was later recognised by the United Nations as an index known as Human Happiness Index.
