How can we waste time on fashion? If they will not come, fashion will stop automatically.

Constructive development is not referred to in the paragraph. Rather it should have been about time.

Youngsters are considered as the liable source of constructive thoughts. The brightness of fashion world may lead to improper development of youngsters.

These questions require sharpness of mind. The answer can be deduced from the first line itself.

Though the waste of time or the expenditures on fashions is very large.

Observe the bolded letters and now relate it to the two words "constructive development". The other options cannot be concluded definitely but they may be true.

Since fashion leads to waste of useful time that time should be used to do some constructive or in other words useful work. I hope everybody understood this.

According to me, option D is right, as fashion is the outward appearance of a person.

So the value should be given more to the work and other activities and one's inner self than one's outward appearance (i.e., Fashion).

The fashion is also creating an excessive craze to the youngsters which is detrimental.
