Solution
Contracting wage employment programme was the major way to address poverty.
Explanation:
The major approach is not limited to contracting wage employment alone but includes diverse strategies like economic growth promotion and ensuring minimum basic needs. Economists also state that benefits of economic growth have not fully trickled down to the poor, which highlights the multi-faceted approach needed for poverty reduction, rather than relying solely on wage employment programmes.
