Explanation:

- Option 1: Excess rainfall, that hit the coal movement

- Excessive rainfall can disrupt mining operations and transportation, leading to delays and shortages in coal supply.

- Option 2: Imported coal-based power plants are generating less than half of their capacity because of high prices

- High prices of imported coal can lead power plants to reduce their production, contributing to coal shortages as domestic plants may not fully cover the reduced outputs.

- Option 3: Increase in Power Demand as the economy is recovering from the Covid-19 pandemic

- Economic recovery often results in higher industrial activity and energy consumption, escalating the demand for coal to generate power.

- Option 4: All of these

- All the mentioned factors can collectively contribute to a coal shortage. Each situation interplays to stress supply chains and meet increasing demand.

Correct Answer: Option 4: All of these

Each factor plays a role in the complex dynamics affecting coal availability.
