Solution
The correct option is D Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM)
Suspended particulate matter (SPM) is finely divided solids or liquids of less than 10μm in diameter suspended in air that may be dispersed from combustion processes, industrial activities or natural sources.
Dust and construction and vehicular emissions contribute about 59% to the air pollution in India, which is followed by waste burning.
The oxides of nitrogen and sulphur and carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide are also important air pollutants, their volume remains lesser than SPM in most metropolitan cities of India.
