• B. Plato
• C. B.R. Ambedkar
• D. Martin Luther King

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Plato

Plato wrote in his book ‘The Republic’ on the Division of Labour. He said, “Human society is formed on natural inequalities. This natural inequality is based on division of labour”. A society’s need is fulfilled by different divisions of people. For example, the food is produced by farmers, cloth by weavers, and dresses are produced by tailors. The division of labour leads to organic merger of various sections of society. The Division of labour is necessary to fulfill the needs of social, economic and political needs of the society. But, there should be no exploitation in this process.
