Solution

The correct option is B Quality of water resources
We find that fragile water resources are being overexploited and have caused their depletion in several of these cities. Much of it may be polluted by domestic and industrial wastes, chemicals, pesticides and fertilisers used in agriculture, thus, making it hazardous for human use.
