What percentage of rural people had a toilet 5 years ago?
A
5%
B
7%
C
10%
D
None of these
Correct Option:
D
Explanation
As written, the question is defective because “5 years ago” has no fixed reference year. In the 2017 examination context, five years earlier would be approximately 2012. National rural sanitation coverage around the 2011–12 period was far above 5%, 7% or 10%, with Census 2011 reporting 32.7% rural sanitation coverage. Therefore none of the numerical choices is defensible on that time basis.
