Detailed Solution

Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. Stalin became the leader of the Soviet Union as he now headed Communist Party after Lenin's death. He wanted to eliminate Kulaks. Kulaks were wealthy peasants. According to Stalin, Kulaks were responsible for hoarding grains to gain more profits and become wealthy. Kulaks hoarded the grains, sold them at higher prices, and gained their profits.
Stalin wanted the development of farms to be modernized as industries. To achieve this purpose, Stalin needed to eliminate Kulaks, as they were hoarding the grains, resulting in pitfalls in agricultural work. They also had large farms, many animals like cows, and were rich peasants. Therefore, it was necessary to eliminate them to meet the agricultural line with the industrial line.
