- A. India does not have enough resources for promoting quality education in its universities.
- B. The institutions of higher learning in the country should not be under the control of the Government.
- C. Classroom approach to higher education should be done away with.
- D. Classroom needs to be reimagined and teaching to be re-invented.
Answer: D
Explanation
The passage critically examines the current state of teaching and learning in India, which is focused on examinations. It explicitly calls for a shift towards critical and independent thinking, learning through doing, and asking questions from multiple perspectives. The concluding sentence, “Teaching has to be re-invented,” directly supports the idea that the classroom approach needs a fundamental transformation. Option (a) is incorrect as resource scarcity is not mentioned. Option (b) misinterprets the passage’s call for intellectual independence from government policy as a demand for complete removal of government control. Option (c) is an extreme interpretation; the passage advocates for reinvention, not abolition, of classroom learning.
