Solution
The correct option is B Crisis in the agricultural sector and a serious food shortage
The Third Five-Year Plan was followed by three annual plans. This period is known as the plan holiday. During these years, India witnessed a crisis in the agricultural sector and had a serious food shortage. Thus, the government shifted focus on developing and modernising agriculture rather than emphasising on industrial development.
