Option 1: hydro-electricity
Option 2: thermal
Option 3: nuclear

Correct Answer: thermal
Solution : The correct option is Thermal.
Thermal power generation, which includes both coal-fired and gas-fired power plants, accounts for a significant amount of India's power generation. Coal-fired power facilities have historically dominated the thermal sector.

Therefore, India is attempting to transition to cleaner, more sustainable energy sources such as solar, wind and hydroelectricity.
