Answer 1

The correct option is B Making the country self-reliant

1. Ensuring price stability
2. Controlling population explosion
3. Establishing cooperatives

However, all these objectives had one major goal, i.e. making the country self-reliant. However, the Ninth Five-Year Plan did not achieve the targeted growth rate of 7%.
