    D.

    A, D and E only

    The IRS satellites are polar sun-synchronous satellites designed for earth observation and typically operate at low altitudes (~850 km). They monitor a fixed point at regular intervals and are extensively used for agriculture, forestry, land use, and water resources. They are not used for weather forecasting (that’s for INSAT satellites) or telecommunication.
