Directions : A word is given in each question and used

Solution

​ Borne (past participle of ‘bear’ (verb)):  endure (an ordeal or difficulty)/ carried or transported by the thing specified. Statements I and III use the word correctly in the above senses. I says that Black and Brown people have endured the brunt of police abuses for centuries. III says that dysentery, which is a disease transported by water, has infected over 3,000 people. Statement II does not use the word correctly and it must be replaced with ‘bore’. II implies that a hole was made in the concrete basement by using a tool to access underneath. Bore (verb):  make (a hole) in something with a tool or by digging. Hence, the correct answer is option A.
