Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Abolishing all government employment programmes
1. The chapter lists irrigation, agro-processing, small industries and local services as solutions.
2. These create off-farm employment in rural areas.
3. Abolishing government employment programmes would worsen unemployment, not improve it.
