Which of the following statements is/are correct?
1. Thermal power stations in Delhi were required to summarily shut down.
2. CNG supplies had to be assured once diesel vehicles were prohibited from plying.
3. The Supreme Court banned the use of coal across the National Capital Region.

उत्तर और व्याख्या · explanation in English
Answer: (c) केवल 2
Only the CNG statement matches the passage. Thermal plants were to clean up or shut down, not shut down summarily, and the coal ban came from the Delhi Government and was extended to the NCR — the Supreme Court banned pet coke.
- ✗ 1. It was agreed that the plants 'would clean up or shut down' — a choice, not a summary shutdown.
- ✓ 2. 'When diesel buses were stopped, CNG supply had to be assured.'
- ✗ 3. The Delhi Government banned coal, later extended to the NCR; the Supreme Court's ban was on pet coke.
Remember · Match each action to the right actor: who banned what is a favourite trap in policy passages.
