Verified by Toppr

The correct option is D While India has historically been very hospitable to a variety of religions, it has not been equally open to linguistic foreigners
In the 8th paragraph it is mentioned 'As Mr. French has observed, there is a tendency in some of these writers to value social mobility only for themselves. When the new economy lifts up the huddled masses, then it becomes tawdry capitalism and rapacious imperialism and soulless globalization.' Therefore, option (d) is correct.
