Correct: building dams and the introduction of hydropower.
Explanation: controlling a river involves engineering works (dams, barrages, canals, embankments) and using its flow for hydroelectric power (e.g., Tarbela, Mangla, Ghazi‑Barotha on the Indus). Overgrazing and cutting riverside vegetation are destructive activities that increase erosion and flooding risk, not control measures.
