Read the following passage and answer the question that follows. Your answers to these items should be based on the passage only.

India faces a challenging immediate future in energy and climate policy-making. The problems are multiple: sputtering fossil fuel production capabilities; limited access to electricity and modern cooking fuel for the poorest; rising fuel imports in an unstable global energy context; continued electricity pricing and governance challenges leading to its costly deficits or surplus supply; and not least, growing environmental contestation around land, water and air. But all is not bleak: growing energy efficiency programmes; integrated urbanisation and transport policy discussion; inroads to enhancing energy access and security; and bold renewable energy initiatives, even if not fully conceptualised, suggest the promise of transformation.

Which one of the following statements best reflects the critical message conveyed by the passage given above?

A
India's energy decision-making process is ever more complex and interconnected.
B
India's energy and climate policy is heavily tuned to sustainable development goals.
C
India's energy and climate actions are not compatible with its broader social, economic and environmental goals.
D
India's energy decision-making process is straightforward supply-oriented and ignores the demand side.
