Gandhian idea of development focuses on ................... .
Answer: C
The Gandhian idea of development centres on trusteeship.
Gandhi held that those who own wealth should regard themselves as trustees, holding it on behalf of society and using it for the common good, while keeping only what they need. Trusteeship was meant as a non-violent alternative to both capitalism, with its unrestricted private ownership, and state socialism, with its concentration of power in the state.
So private ownership and government ownership are the very models he wanted to transcend. Community ownership is close in spirit to his village ideal, but the specific doctrine he proposed for property and development is trusteeship.
