@Prashant.
The statement is about the growth of standard of living and not about standard of living. (read the statement, it says "going up"). So your example of china is probably not relevant here because nevertheless the standard of living in china is going up however slow or fast it maybe.
This is because of the rapid growth in Chinese economy. In context of all other countries direct relationship between growth in economy and growth in standard of living is quite evident. (better growth in economy, better growth in solution) same is true for India. So B is definitely correct.

Growth of an economy means GDP growth. GDP means value of whatever is being produced in that country. Value will be more if quantity is more. Quantity will be high if demand is more. So ultimately it is the people who determine demands.
That's why option A is correct.
That's why option A is correct.

China has a better economy growth than India still the standard of living of people is not better than India so Im ny view option A is right.

Growth in economy affects the way of living, but the reverse may or may not be true.

Re@ Kalim, Roshan, Tarun
Friends.
Our views may vary, but in exam we have to follow only active mindset "society is for people".
1)NO NATION CAN BUILD ECONOMY ON ITS OWN UNTIL PEOPLE INVOLVE.
2)ECONOMY IS SURELY A DEPENDENT VARIANT OF SOCIETY.
In this perspective, Option A suits, and this is the way the examiner also justifies the answer.
If we go with our specified view , we may loss a mark.
As you know "cause & effect","strong & weak", "Implicity & explicity", " Truthfulness of Statement " these all fall under this same category of "Point-of-View Variatio".
