In which situation may human welfare remain low despite high per capita GDP?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: जब स्वास्थ्य, शिक्षा और सुरक्षा कमजोर हों
Per capita GDP is an average economic indicator; it does not guarantee good health, education, personal safety, or equal access to public services. If these human-development conditions are weak, welfare can remain low despite high average income, so option A is correct. Options B, C, and D describe conditions that generally support welfare rather than reduce it.
