Answer:
The correct answer to the given question is an option (b) Hill cultivation.
Explanation:
Sir Herbert Hope Risley classified the people of India in three main classes according to the race:
1) Dravidian
2) Indo- Aryan
3) Mongoloid
His classification took shape in the year 1901 when he organised the census in that year but his classification was put forward in the year 1915 under the title 'The people of India'.
On the state level, Risley's classification based on race was of seven types and these seven types can be considered as the subdivisions of the three main classifications.
