Direction: Study the following information carefully and answer the question.

Too little has changed with the practice of child labour in our country, despite tall promises made by our leaders. A good proportion of children throughout the world, especially in India, form a part of the working labour force. Millions of children work in fields and factories, on street comers and in garbage dumps, in private houses and public houses. These children certainly would pose a threat to society, if they are not treated equal and given opportunities to develop towards the best of their potential despite being poorly educated. The existence of child labour in India is a complex reality. However, it is a symptom, not the disease.

Which of the following is the main cause of the rising child labour in India?

A)  Extreme poverty

B)  Unstable and poor income

C)  Parental illiteracy

D)  More number of dependent children

E)   All of these
