Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Tobacco
1. The chapter says Salaam Mumbai Foundation empowers slum children and has made some Maharashtra districts completely tobacco-free.
2. Since 2002 it works with urban and rural schools to make society tobacco-free, with a tobacco-freedom oath taken in schools.
3. The text repeats tobacco control as the foundation's core mission.
4. Hence option C, tobacco, is correct.
5. The plastic option confuses a different campaign; plastic is not the foundation's stated aim.
6. Noise pollution and traffic jams are likewise not the foundation's focus, so they are ruled out.
