The correct option is C) 2, 1, 3, 4.

Let’s arrange the agreements chronologically:
1. **Indus Water Treaty:** Signed on September 19, 1960.
2. **Tashkent Declaration:** Signed on January 10, 1966. This followed the Indo-Pakistan War of 1965.
3. **Agreement on the Prohibition of Attack Against Each Other’s Nuclear Installations and Facilities:** Signed on December 31, 1988, and came into force in 1991.
4. **Agreement on Reducing the Risk from Accidents Relating to Nuclear Weapons:** Signed on February 21, 2007.

The chronological order is thus 2, 1, 3, 4.

These agreements are significant milestones in India-Pakistan relations. The Indus Water Treaty, despite conflicts, has largely remained in force. The Tashkent Declaration aimed to restore friendly relations after the 1965 war but was marred by subsequent events. The nuclear agreements are confidence-building measures crucial for managing nuclear risks between the two countries.
