Solution

The correct option is C Lack of natural resources
The British exploited India's resources and made the country a colony to market their goods. Other causes of poverty include overpopulation, unemployment, India's dependence on rural economy and low productivity in agriculture. There are other socio-economic factors that contribute to poverty in India as well.
