Solution

The correct option is C Feeling of discrimination due to difference in language and religion of the dominant population
Punjab faced the problem of discrimination due to difference in language and religion of the dominant population. But here, there was no problem of immigrants. Instead, the state felt that its contribution was often neglected.

The dispute over the capital city happened post the division of Punjab and Haryana. Both wanted the capital city of Chhattisgarh. The people of Punjab claimed that Chandigarh belongs to Punjab.

Punjab claimed more water from the Bhakra Nangal dam situated in Himachal Pradesh, not Narmada.
