The reason why "A" is correct is, We should not use "About" immediately after the following.
Discuss, describe, mention, explain, state, remark.

After word 'discuss' we use about when we talking about the history of anything. Here we can't use about. For example.
I discuss English mean any topic of English and.
I discuss about English mean about the history of english.
I discuss English mean any topic of English and.
I discuss about English mean about the history of english.
