अनुच्छेद पढ़कर दिए गए प्रश्नों के सही उत्तर चुनिए -:

देश-प्रेम, प्रेम का वह अंश है जिसका आलंबन है सारा देश। उसमें व्याप्त प्रत्येक कण अर्थात् मनुष्य, पशु, पक्षी, नदी, नाले, वन, पर्वत इत्यादि। यह एक साहचर्यगत प्रेम है अर्थात् जिसके सान्निध्य का हमें अभ्यास पड़ जाता है उनके प्रति लोभ या राग हो जाता है। कोई भी व्यक्ति सच्चा देश-प्रेमी कहला सकने का सामर्थ्य तभी रखेगा जब वह देश के प्रत्येक मनुष्य, पशु, पक्षी, लता, गुल्म, पेड़, पत्ते, वन, पर्वत, नदी, निर्झर आदि सभी को अपनात्व की भावना से देखेगा। इन सबकी सुधि करके विदेश में भी आँसू बहायेगा। जो व्यक्ति राष्ट्र के मूल जीवन को भी नहीं जानता और उसके बाद भी देश-प्रेमी होने का दावा करे तो यह उसकी भूल है। जब तुम किसी के सुख-दुःख के भागीदार ही नहीं बने तो उसे झूठी देखने के स्वप्न की तुम कैसे कल्पना करोगे? उससें अलग रहकर अपनी बोली में तुम उसके हित की बात करो पर उसमें प्रेम के माधुर्य जैसे भाव नहीं होंगे। प्रेम की तरंग में तोता नहीं जा सकता। ये भाव तो मनुष्य के अंत:करण से जुड़े हुए हैं। परिचय से प्रेम की उत्पत्ति होती है। यदि आप समझते हैं कि आपके अंत:करण में राष्ट्र-प्रेम के भाव उजागर हों तो आप राष्ट्र के स्वरूप से परिचित हो जाइए और अपने को उसके स्वरूप में समा जाने दीजिए। तभी आपके अंतरतम में इस इच्छा का सचमुच उदय होगा कि वह हमसे कभी न छूटे। उससे धनाढ्यता की वृद्धि हो। सब सुखी हों।

In this question, a passage is given followed by a statement. Read the passage carefully and judge the statement based on the given passage.

When Shah Jahan eternalised his love for Mumtaz, he must have believed that the river would be flowing forever. There was no solid ground on which the foundation could be built. So they used a well foundation, an engineering practice using deep wells to lower the water table and filling them with rocks and mortar. Finally they were capped with wooden, bo×like structures on which the mausoleum was constructed.

The Yamuna is an integral part of the Taj’s design and there was no anticipation that it would dry or become narrow. But the river has narrowed and it is polluted. The wooden foundations are likely to become brittle and might disintegrate because, as Venice, built on a wooden foundation, shows, longevity of wood increases when it is submerged in water. When the wood is not e×posed to o×ygen there are no microorganisms to promote decay. A dry Yamuna could promote disintegration of the wooden foundations, the corrosive effect of the polluted water adding to the decay.

Statement:

Taj Mahal was built on a strong solid ground on the bank of river Yamuna.

Choose the appropriate one from the following options

A -The statement is definitely true

B -The statement is probably true
