Read the following passage and answer the items that follow. Your answers to these items should be based on the passages only.
Our urban bodies cannot possibly ensure sustainable delivery of water in our cities unless financing mechanisms are put in place. Water delivery requires heavy investment in collecting it from a natural source, treating it to make it potable, and laying a distribution network of pipes for delivery to the users. It also requires investments in sewerage infrastructure and sewage treatment plants so that the sewers can carry the wastewater to these plants to ensure that no untreated sewage is discharged back into natural water bodies. If our cities were rich enough to meet the entire cost, water could be delivered free. They are not.
With reference to the above passage, the following assumptions have been made:
Which of the above assumptions is/are valid?
1 only
2 only
Both 1 and 2
Neither 1 nor 2
Sol. Ans.(b). Theme is “Cost of supplying water”.
Statement 1 is not correct, as “rich cities could supply water for free” is mentioned. We are talking of sustainability in statement 1.
Statement 2 is correct as sustainable delivery includes many aspects other than just supplying water to households.
Hence option (b) is right.
