Solution
The correct option is C Both 1 and 2 The most important public place of Mohenjodaro seems to be the Great Bath, comprising the tank which was situated in the citadel mound. There were side rooms for changing clothes. Water was drawn from a large well in an adjacent room and an outlet from the corner of the Bath led to the drain. Thus we can conclude that the Great Bath displayed water management techniques and scientific developments in sanitation during the Harappan period.
