When nitrobenzene is treated with Br(2)...

When nitrobenzene is treated with `Br_(2)` in presence of `FeBr_(3)`, the major product formed is `m-`bromo`-`nitrobenzene. Statement which is related to obtain the `m-`isomer is

A

The electron density at the meta position is greater than those at the ortho and para positions

B

Aromaticity is lost in the `simga-`complexes formed by the attack of `Br^(+)` at the ortho and para positions but not at the meta position.

C

The `sigma-`complex formed by the attack of `Br^(+)` at the meta position is the least destablized and the most stable among the three `sigma-`complexes

D

In the final step of regeneration of benzene ring by the loss of `H^(+)` from the `sigma-`complexes, the meta-oriented `sigma-`complex loses `H^(+)` most readily
