Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

In 1731, the king of Jodhpur in Rajasthan asked one of his ministers to arrange wood for constructing a new palace. Amrita Devi showed exemplary courage by hugging a tree and daring king's men to cut her first before cutting the tree. Ramesh Chandra Dagar, a farmer in Sonipat, Haryana, is doing just this. He includes bee-keeping, dairy management, water harvesting, composting and agriculture in a chain of processes, which support each other and allow an extremely economical and sustainable venture. Ahmed Khan proved that blends of Polyblend and bitumen, when used to lay roads, enhanced the bitumen's water repellant properties, and helped to increase road life by a factor of three. The raw material for creating Polyblend is any plastic film waste
