Agree @Jayasrisiva.
The low heat cement should be the answer here!

Blast furnace slag is suitable to MARINE structures as it has less heat of hydration and suited to MASSIVE constrction.
Since we used granulated blast furnace slag (pozzolona material) it has the property of HYDRAULICITY.
Hence it doesnt the correct answer.
Correct option is LOW HEAT CEMENT.
It attains slow rate of strengthening hence it is mainly suited to the construction of MASSIVE STRUCTURES it is not preferred to thin concrete works.
