Solution
The correct option is D all of these
India's power sector, the credit for 60% of the power production by thermal power plants is using coal as it's fuel. The main issue arises by the shortage of coal which also pollutes the environment. The losses are due to less formation of power which affects overall revenue. As the output is less, GDP is also affected directly.
