- AEach person should perform the functions according to his status
- BNo effort should be made to modify the existing social system
- CNo person should be made to suffer a position of relative inferiority in relation to other men due to caste, race or religion
- DSpecial effort to improve the lot of weaker section
Explanation
Social equality means that no person should suffer a position of relative inferiority vis-a-vis others on grounds of caste, race, or religion. It does not mean freezing people in status-based roles, leaving the social system untouched, or only uplifting weaker sections (that is closer to social justice). Hence option (C) captures the meaning.
