Who said this statement? “Indian village is not a static community, but it is dynamic.”

Explanation

The intended answer is Charles M., referring to Sir Charles Metcalfe. However, this particular question is historically imprecise: Metcalfe is more famously associated with describing Indian villages as remarkably enduring communities or “little republics,” whereas modern rural sociology stresses that villages are dynamic and undergo continuous social and economic change. Therefore this should be treated as the examination's intended attribution rather than an unproblematic verbatim quotation.
