Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Campaign.

  • The word campaign fits best because it refers to an organized effort to achieve a specific goal, which aligns with the government's initiative to stop gender-selective abortions.
  • The other options—enterprise (a business venture), campfire (irrelevant), and undertaking (a general task)—don't capture the sense of a focused effort like a campaign does.
  • Therefore, "campaign" is the most suitable choice.
