Solution

The correct option is A America
In 1974, when India carried out the first nuclear tests at Pokhran, America refused to give India the technology for defence-related fields such as space research, communications and missile development. On 11 May 1998, India carried out its second nuclear test, and America immediately imposed economic sanctions on India.
