Correct Answer: 1966


Solution : The correct answer is 1966 .

The Green Revolution started in India in 1965, and it led to an increase in wheat and rice production, which led to self-sufficiency in food grain production in India. It lasted until 1978–79. It was primarily concentrated in the states of Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. M. S. Swaminathan is the father of the Green Revolution in India.
