Correct Answer:
C. Industrialization
The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is a massive infrastructure project. By 2023, CPEC had transitioned into its Industrialization phase. This second phase focuses on establishing Special Economic Zones (SEZs), promoting industrial cooperation, and enhancing agricultural and socio-economic development, moving beyond the initial infrastructure development.
- The Planning phase was the initial conceptual stage of the project.
- The Early Harvest phase involved the rapid completion of critical energy and infrastructure projects, largely concluding before 2023.
- 'None of these' is incorrect as the project has clearly defined phases.
The shift to industrialization signifies a deeper economic integration and development focus.
