Which one of the following statements is not true in the context of the passage?

B.Economic development and social reforms were initiated soon after independence.

Explanation
The passage explicitly states that Congress leadership 'underestimated the centrifugal forces of ethnic division' and 'took the cohesion of the Indian nation too much for granted'. So they were NOT fully aware of ethnic diversity problems. Statements 1, 2, and 3 are all supported by the passage. Hence (4) is the statement that is NOT true.
