Answer 1

The correct option is C In the late - $1960s$

The Green Revolution in India was first introduced in Punjab in the late 1960 as part of a development program issued by international donor agencies and the Government of India.

During the British Rule , India's grain economy hinged on a unilateral relation of exploitation. Consequently, when India gained independence, the weakened country quickly became vulnerable to frequent famines, financial instabilities, and low productivity. These factors formed a rationale for the implementation of the Green Revolution as a development strategy in India.

The correct answer is C .
