Question

Vehicles are one of the contributors toward polluting the environment. The Supreme Court ordered vehicles to shift to compressed natural gas. This initiative was accompanied with price rise.

Why do you think this did not work out?

• A. The government started earning more.
• B. People liked petrol vehicles better.
• C. People couldn't afford to use CNG.
• D. The government didn't provide a sustainable solution.

Answer 1

Answer: (C), (D)

The government didn't provide a sustainable solution.

Controlling pollution is the need of the hour. The government laid out an order to switch to CNG. However, this type of natural gas was too pricy. So, not all people could afford it. Hence, most people did not shift to CNG. This became a solution that did not focus on sustainable development.
