I think option B is correct

Option B is correct. As clearly written that consumption can be prevented which means reduced not eliminated. Also, it is impossible to eliminate anything.

Option E is correct in my opinion.

According to me, the answer should be B, we know that consumption can be reduced through these all rehabilitation process (but the gist was that it can be reduced).

The 1st line says that the consumption of drugs “can be prevented not only by banning their sale” but also by instructing users.

And option D is contradicting this by saying it “can be eliminated with the help of banning their sale”.

So, the answer should be option B.

Option E, channelize means to hollow out something which has a close meaning to elimination, moreover, a number of measures have been discussed in the para, which should be seen as a collective entity, a plan.

I agree B is the correct option.

I go with option B too, para clearly depicts steps to reduce drug sage it says bannin is not the solution, btw is it that the answers may not be accuratein these papers?

Option B should be the answer as according to the statement the prevention of drugs is not only the main area of focus here. It is the reduction of drug usage along with prevention.

"The consumption of harmful drugs by the people can be prevented not only by banning their sale in the market. ".

This statement does not imply that the consumption of harmful drugs can be eliminated. It suggests prevention, which means, through education, less people might consume illicit drugs although the problem would still exist to a lesser extent. Prevention does not mean elimination which suggests the problem would be eradicated.

I would therefore go with option B as drug-use can be reduced through prevention but not eliminated.

I can see why the answer should be option D, however I think the answer is badly-worded.
