B.) Too few people control these resources.

In many cases, the issue of poverty in South Asia is related to unequal distribution of resources, where a small percentage of the population may have significant control over resources, such as land, wealth, and economic opportunities. This concentration of resources in the hands of a few can contribute to widespread poverty among the majority of the population.
