As the tension is more in the case of a rotating machine is acts like a reverse fluctuating load which causes fatigue failure not bending.
So in this case, option B seems to be correct.

It could damages few pulleys but not shafts.

Yes, I also agree.
The loss of Power is not possible in the given case.

Answer may be B. I also agree.

Bending may occur due to high tension but loss of power is not possible as far as I know.

I think so the high tension in the belt might result in fatigue load on the shaft which results in slight bending in the shaft axis.

Answer must be B. There is no damage when tension can increase.

Yeah, I agree there is no chance for bending in machine due to tension in the belt.

Adding a load to belt will cause better power circulation only. It might lead to belt damage but it won't harm engine components so answer needs to be verified. Please correct me if I am wrong.
