Explanation:

In this question, we have to choose and option which negates the facts provided in the statement. Option (i) is not a correct choice as there is no definite correlation between air pollution and infrastructural development. Some times better infrastructure leads to more air pollution by accommodating more vehicles on the roads. Option (ii) clearly supports the statement by pointing out that PM will be inaugurating many new highways in coming six months which could account for the use of funds mentioned in the statement. Option (iii) negates the statement as it points out the lack of road space in Delhi because average speed of traffic have reduced whereas the statement mentions that the government has spent 40k crores in infrastructure projects over last two years.
