Question

Based on the passage about clean skies and fuels, which of the following statements is/are correct?
1. Thermal power stations in Delhi were required to summarily shut down.
2. CNG supplies had to be assured once diesel vehicles were prohibited from plying.
3. The Supreme Court banned the use of coal across the National Capital Region.

Select the answer using the code given below.

Accepted Answer

Correct Option: (c) 2 only Statement 1 is incorrect because the passage states that thermal power plants were required to 'clean up or shut down', not summarily shut down without option. Statement 2 is correct because the passage explicitly notes: 'When diesel buses were stopped, CNG supply had to be assured.' Statement 3 is incorrect because the Delhi Government banned coal usage which was later extended to the entire National Capital Region, but the Supreme Court banned 'pet coke', not coal across the NCR directly by the court (coal ban was initiated by the Delhi government and extended). Thus, only statement 2 is correct, making option (c) the right choice.
