Statement : Any further increase in the pollution level in the city by way of industrial effluents and automobile exhaustions would pose a severe threat to the inhabitants.

Courses of Action :
I. All the factories in the city should immediately be closed down.
II. The automobiles should not be allowed to ply on the road for more than four hours a day.
III. The Government should restrict the issue of fresh licences to factories and automobiles.

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option C
The existing industrial units and automobiles ought to be checked for pollution level and fitted with proper equipments to minimise the same. Restricting their operation is no solution. So, neither I nor II follows. Besides, fresh licences ought to be given only to those vehicles or factories which operate at the optimum emission level. So, III follows.
