Solution

The correct option is A Chitti Bein
Chitti Bein, a tributary of Satluj, is so heavily polluted that the water is literally black in colour. The black water in these streams is highly toxic due to industrial waste and untreated sewage being dumped in them, and it is still being used for irrigation.
