Solution
The correct option is C Typhoid Typhoid is a water-borne disease which spreads through contaminated food and water. Since Sunil ate 'pani puri' and suffered from symptoms like stomach ache, diarrhea, weakness and loss of appetite. It is more likely that he suffered from typhoid. Tuberculosis is an air borne disease, malaria spreads through the bite of mosquitoes and ringworm is a fungal skin infection.
