Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (C)

Children were given free milk.

Allende brought in a lot of reforms to help the people of Chile; children were given free milk, land was distributed to landless people, and welfare of the labour class and poor was improved. All foreign companies that wanted to exploit the natural resources of Chile were not given permission. These reforms troubled the land owners, rich, and the church.
