Solution

The correct option is B Milk

White Revolution is associated with a sharp increase in milk production. The White Revolution in India, also known as Operation Flood was launched in the 1970s to make India self-dependent in milk production. Dr Verghese Kurien is known as the father of The White Revolution in India. One of the largest of its kind, the programme objective was to create a nationwide milk grid. It resulted in making India one of the largest producers of milk and milk products and hence is also called the White Revolution of India. It also helped reduce malpractices by milk traders and merchants. Verghese Kurien, the father of White Revolution in India and the founder of Amul, died after a brief spell of illness early on Sunday at Nadiad in Gujarat. He was 90. Mr Kurien's body has been kept at the Sardar Hall of Amul dairy in Anand for people to pay their last respects.

Hence, option ‘b’ is the correct answer.
