Solution

The correct option is A Sale of securities in the open market
Open Market Operations (OMOs): The OMO is sale and purchase of govt securities and Treasury Bills by the central bank of the country. When the central bank decides to pump money into circulation, it buys back the govt securities, bills and bonds and when it decides to reduce money in circulation, it sells the Govt bonds and securities. It is a most powerful tool for monetary control.
