Answer:
(c) 1872
Explanation:
- The first "all-India census" was completed by British Raj officials in 1872.
- Prior to independence, India underwent a number of censuses between 1865 and 1941. The censuses, which were largely focused on administration, encountered a number of issues throughout their planning and execution, including the lack of house numbers in hamlets, cultural objections based on a variety of grounds, and risks posed by wild animals to census workers.
- The censuses were intended less to reveal the population's fundamental structure and more to socially engineer people and advance the British goal for government. The census process was "more indicative of the administrative demands of the British than of the social realities for the inhabitants of British India," according to sociologist Michael Mann.
