interpreting (Question: 191974.4 )

building safety net around assets would mean like safeguarding your assets or wealth. But here we are talking about safety of marriages and relationships, not properties. It should be more like "building safety net around marriages"

Question:
DIRECTIONS: You have a brief passage with 5 questions. Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.


While everyone hopes that the union of marriage be life lasting, the cold reality is that even in India, the level of divorce has increased. To protect oneself from undue harassment over ownership of assets, a prenuptial agreement must be in place. But in India, these are considered taboo, and are not openly discussed.


A prenuptial agreement is a contract between two individuals who are about to get married, detailing the assets, liabilities and financial resources held by each, and an equal division of assets, should a divorce occur. What makes these agreements unique for many Indians is that couples forgo their rights to traditional Hindu laws in order to make sure that their individual finances are safe. 


The agreement should detail the division of property, financial assets, liabilities as well as division of personal possessions clearly, and should be notarised by independent lawyers for each party. Further, it should be fair and duly acknowledged by both parties.


In India, however, prenuptial agreements are neither legal nor valid, since marriage is not considered a contract in most faiths. It is a religious bond between husband and wife, and prenuptial agreements need the contract to be made valid under the Indian Contract Act, 1872. In some religions, however, marriage is considered a contract and, therefore, the laws applicable are different and need to be approached appropriately.


Till just about five years ago. such agreements were almost unheard of in India, but are now on a rise, mostly among the more affluent classes. One could attribute the change to a growing number of divorces  in the country. 

Which of the following options can be a suitable title for the given passage ?  
Options:
A) Prenuptial agreements : saving marriages in India 
B) Prenuptial agreements : making marriages Heavenly 
C) Prenuptial agreements : Building safety net around assets  
D) None of these 
Solution:
Ans: (c) By reading the passage carefully and completely, one gets the idea that only (C) is the best suited title for the passage.
