Directions to Solve
Laws of nature are not commands but statements of acts. The use of the word "law" in this context is rather unfortunate. It would be better to speak of uniformities in nature. This would do away with the elementary fallacy that a law implies a law giver. If a piece of matter does not obey a law of nature it is punished. On the contrary, we say that the law has been incorrectly started.

The answer is B because in para it is stated that "law implies lawgiver" and if someone doesn't obey the law and it is unpunished that means that there is no one to enforce the law (or there isn't a lawgiver of nature).

The correct option is D. It simply means that the facts have not been correctly stated by law.
The passage states that the laws of nature are not commands but descriptions of observed uniformities. If something is not aligned with these laws, then simply the descriptions are incorrect or incomplete.
