- Indian economic growth is based on only industrial growth.
- A country desires economic growth with manageable side effects.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The statement mentions that India had to pay the price of increased pollution level to earn its economic growth. So, both I and III are implicit. However, this does not imply that only industrial growth has brought about India's economic growth. So, II is not implicit.

No, where the Statement says that the pollution problem has been manageable. Instead, the Statement calls pollution as the price of Economic Growth. Therefore only Assumption 1 is implicit. So, Option A should be the correct Answer.
