The correct option is C. Acid rain corroding marble.
The industries located near TajMahal produce pollutants like sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide which react with water vapor present in the atmosphere to form Sulphuric acid and Nitric acid respectively. The acid mixes with rain and forms acid rain, and corrodes the marble.
