Solution

The correct option is C S1 and S2 is true and S2 is the correct explanation for S1
The Harappan cities had an amazing system for water supply. Water was made available to everyone equally and each house had a separate well. There were community wells too. It had a well-planned drainage system where the waste water ran through small streams near the house. These small drains from houses were connected to a large underground drain that was built under the streets.
