Which of the following is NOT the reason for low level of human devel…

The correct answer is Option (3) → Higher investment in people and good governance

Human development means widening people’s choices, so that they can lead a long and healthy life, gain knowledge and have enough means to live a decent life. Anything that harms health, education or income keeps human development low.

Option (1) Political turmoil — A reason for low human development. Unrest and unstable governments disturb schools, hospitals and development work. Money and effort go into keeping order instead of into people’s welfare.

Option (2) Civil war — A reason for low human development. Fighting destroys homes, schools and hospitals and forces people to flee. Many die young and children miss school, so health and education both fall.

Option (3) Higher investment in people and good governance — Not a reason for low human development. This is what raises human development. Money spent on health, education and other social sectors gives people longer, healthier lives and more knowledge, and a stable, fair government makes sure these services reach them. Countries with high human development do this.

Option (4) High incidence of diseases — A reason for low human development. Widespread disease shortens lives and keeps people from working and studying. A long and healthy life is one of the main areas of human development.
