Solution Option (c) is the odd one out in the context of proclamation of Emergency. Explanation In 1967, the Naxalite movement was started by the poor peasants against the government’s socio-economic policies and it targeted rich landowners by snatching land from them and passing them to the poor and the landless. The Naxalites use violent methods to achieve their goals. Presently, Naxalites have emerged as a major internal challenge for the country and are widespread in regions like Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand, particularly targeting state machinery.
