Solution

Explanation:   Is (correct verb): In this context, the subject "The Prime Minister as well as two other ministers" is treated as a singular entity, and the verb should agree with the singular form. Therefore, "is" is the correct choice.   Options:   (a) Are: This is the plural form of the verb and does not agree with the singular subject in this context. (b) Were: This is the past tense form and is not suitable for describing the current visit to the place. (c) Has: This is the singular form of the verb but does not match the subject structure in this sentence. (d) Is: This is the correct singular form of the verb, agreeing with the singular subject.
