65 year olds - govt. concerned about their financial well-being
Govt - raises their pension 2 years ago by 20%
Their condition still remains the same as it was before.
A) if elders rely only on pension, there situation would have been a little better if not much - eliminate
B) Ok - banks take time - but in 2 years I think their situation would have been little better - eliminate
C) Inflation - the passage itself says there is negligible inflation - [remember this is a must be true question, so everything has to be taken from the passage itself] - eliminate
D) If the number [below poverty line] is all time high - they can take more time to recover from it - may be more than 2 years. - Answer.
E) if elders are supported by children to some extent - their [elders] situation would be a little better with increased pension. - eliminate
Hence D.
OA?
just kidding
