Which of the following items of social services has registered the highest rate of increase in expenditures during 2007-08 to 2010-11 ?

Answer: B

Calculate the percentage rise in each item's share from 2007-08 to 2010-11.

\[ \text{Education: } \frac{4.46-4.02}{4.02}\approx 11\% \]

\[ \text{SC/ST and OBC: } \frac{0.63-0.36}{0.36}=75\% \]

\[ \text{Social welfare: } \frac{1.06-0.82}{0.82}\approx 29\% \]

\[ \text{Overall: } \frac{14.02-11.06}{11.06}\approx 27\% \]

Welfare to SC/ST and OBC has the highest rate, 75 percent. The answer is welfare to SC/ST and OBC.
