Solution

The correct option is B increases
The plates of a parallel palate capacitor have equal and opposite charge and obviously they attract each other and if left to themselves will get pulled towards each other. So we need something in b/w to keep them at a small distance of d.
Dielectric does that in a capacitor thus providing it stability!
