Solution
The correct option is A Lack of funds The state of infrastructure during the pre-British India was very poor due to lack of proper funds , most of the villages lacked connectivity by pucca roads. However, such roads damaged misery during monsoons as they became muddy and difficult to traverse .During natural calamities, these roads became non functional as a result of which various areas became inaccessible and were cut-off.
