Answer 1

The correct option is B All Indians share the same national pride of having India as their motherland

The phrase ‘unity in diversity’ is coined by Jawaharlal Nehru. This term is very appropriate to describe India, which is, in spite of being diverse with many languages, religions, castes, creed etc. there is a feeling of oneness among people. The phrase was used by Jawaharlal Nehru in his book ‘Discovery of India’ because all Indians share the same national pride of having India as their motherland in spite of many differences.
