Right choice is (a) Punjab

The explanation: Punjab state abolished water charges for the irrigation water supplies on February 1997, as all most all the whole population of the state is farmers. So, in order to benefit its state farmers and to politically become strong among them the government completely abolished the irrigation revenue rates or charges in the state.
