Solution
The correct option is B
Amount of infiltration > Amount of ground water used
If the amount of water that is fed underground through infiltration is more than the usage, it will lead to the increase the ground water level. Reduction of unnecessary water usage on the industrial scale needs to be monitored. The release of effluents and toxic chemicals in water is being monitored well, but a mechanism to check the usage of water in the first place needs to be re-looked.
