Best answer
Right choice is (b) the livelihood

The explanation is: Since there is constant gravity pressure that is exerting on the surface of the ponds or other water bodies where hydraulic ash is dumped. When the same water is absorbed into the ground, it affects the quality of ground water. This effect indirectly affects growth of plants and degrades the land around water body making it unusable.
