Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

Among these forest cases, the Dehradun limestone-quarrying litigation concerns balancing ecological integrity against industrial demands, and the Ganesh Wood Products case holds that forest-based industries have no unrestricted right to operate where resources are scarce; the remaining two concern the principle that renewal of a forest lease is not a vested right and the invalidity of a lease or renewal granted without the required central approval. This gives the order "(ii) (iii) (i) (iv)".
