• A. They were open to criticism.
• B. People were happy with its regime.
• C. Few families gained control of Libya’s resources and wealth.
• D. Trade unions and political parties flourished.

Answer 1

The correct option is C Few families gained control of Libya’s resources and wealth.

Revolutionary Councils were under the close watch of Gadaffi. Democratic bodies had to implement decisions of this unelected body. Revolutionary Councils were intolerant of any criticism against it and there was no freedom of press. Organisations like trade unions and political parties were not allowed to function independently. Only a few families gained control of Libya’s resources and wealth.
