Development perspective defines women as .......................... .
Answer: A
The development perspective treats women as partners in development.
Earlier welfare approaches saw women as passive recipients of relief, as mothers and dependants. From the 1970s the development perspective, reflected in India's Sixth Five Year Plan with its first chapter on women and development, began to treat women as active participants and agents whose work contributes to development.
'Beneficiary of welfare schemes' and 'objects of charity' describe the earlier welfare view, and 'target population' describes the way family planning programmes saw women.
