Answer 1

Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

Explanation:

• The majority of people in India have little or no assets such as land, houses, or fixed deposits.
• This is mainly because of the unequal distribution of income and wealth.
• Inequalities in income and wealth mean that only a small percentage of people control most of the assets, leaving many with little or no property or savings.
• This unequal distribution contributes significantly to poverty in India, as many people lack the necessary resources to improve their living standards.
