Read the following short text, then select which proposition(s) is/are true:

Since New Delhi is the

center of trade and commerce for northern India, industrial employment has

grown from 850,000 two decades ago to 25 million today. Each year, an estimated

500,000 people flood in from the countryside, some from as far away as

Bangladesh, all looking for work—and as the population has mushroomed, Delhi

has found itself increasingly hard pressed to provide basic services. Says

Lieutenant Governor P.K. Dave, who runs the municipal administration: “Today it

takes fire-fighting measures to keep the city functioning. We can’t sustain

that for long, and yet the pressure keeps getting worse.”
