• B. There should be a pay gap between two genders.
• C. Equal wages should be paid for equal work.

Answer 1

The correct option is C Equal wages should be paid for equal work.

The Equal Remuneration Act of 1976 says that equal wages should be paid for equal work. This act was passed to avoid discrimination in pay based on gender, but unfortunately this act has not been implemented properly.
