Solution

The correct option is D Increase employment opportunities.
At the time of independence, India's socio-economic status was disappointing. 80% of the population was poor. Only 12% of the population was literate. Unemployment was as high as 33.5%. To overcome all these problems, India implemented Five-Year Plans. Each plan set specific economic targets to be achieved in a period of five years.
