    S1: Considering environmental issues and to reduce dependency on fossil fuel, many countries have politicized to replenish fossil fuel demand from renewable sources.

    S6: The production of Jatropha as a biofuel has been confronted with various challenges such as production, oil extraction, conversion, and also its use as a sustainable biofuel.

    P: Huge grants were released by many projects for huge plantation of Jatropha (millions of hectares).

    Q: Citing the potential of Jatropha mostly without any scientific and technological backup, it is believed to be one of the most suitable biofuel candidates.

    R: Unfortunately, there has been no significant progress, and Jatropha did not contribute much to the energy scenario.

    S: Unavailability of high-yielding cultivar, large-scale plantation without the evaluation of the planting materials, knowledge gap, and basic research gap seems to be the main reasons for failure.

    Solutions
    The sentence Q should follow S1 as it mentions the company that believed to be one of the most suitable biofuel candidates. Also, the entire passage revolves around Jatropha. The sentences Q and R form a mandatory pair because they tell that though huge grants were released by many projects for huge plantation of Jatropha, there has been no significant progress, and Jatropha did not contribute much to the energy scenario. The sentence S then tells the reason of the failure of the Jatropha.

    Hence, the correct answer is option A i.e. QPRS.

    S1: Human traffickers often create transnational routes for transporting migrants who are driven by unfavourable living conditions to seek the services of a smuggler.

    S6: Transporters, in turn, sustain the migration process through various modes of transportation: land, air, and sea.

    P: Because such circumstances make it difficult for victims to obtain legitimate travel documents, smugglers supply migrants with fraudulent passports or visas.

    Q: Migrants view the services of a smuggler as an opportunity to move from impoverished conditions in their home countries to more stable, developed environments.

    R: Middlemen who recruit from within the origin country commonly share the cultural background of those migrating.

    S: Human trafficking usually starts in origin countries where recruiters seek migrants through various mediums such as the Internet, employment agencies, the media, and local contacts.

    Solutions
    The sentence S should follow S1 as it tells how does human trafficking start. The sentence R then tells whom middleman recruits after seeking migrants through various mediums. The sentence Q should follow R as it then tells how the migrants view the services of smugglers. The sentence P aptly precedes S2 as S tells about the difficulty in obtaining legitimate travel documents and how smugglers supply migrants with fraudulent passports or visas.

    Hence, the correct order is option A i.e. SRQP.
