One of jawaharlal nehru’s first duties as india’s prime minister was to a) end fighting between muslims and hindus. b) relocate the post-partition refugees. c) improve living standards for indians. d) establish a state religion in india.

The correct answer is C), improve living standard for Indians.  

When Jawaharlal Nehru became Prime Minister, unemployment rates were high, poverty was extreme. Citizens from India lacked basic services such as housing, pure water and sewage systems. India had low-income jobs and poor security measures for its citizens. That is why Nehru first priority was to improve living standard for Indians.
