Answer 1

The correct option is D To make India self dependent in milk production.

The Green revolution was a huge success but the benefits were confined to limited areas. For example a state like Punjab having good irrigation facilities benefitted the most whereas states like Assam, Himachal Pradesh and Orissa lagged behind. The nation witnessed another revolution after Green Revolution. It was called the White Revolution or Operation flood. It was intended to make India self-dependent in milk production.
