Find the correct combination of words that replace each other. If the sentence is correct as it is, select ‘E’ as your option.Solution
C is incorrect at its place. Striving statistical justification is incorrect. Instead, the correct word here should be ‘establish’. So, B-C need to be interchanged. A and D are correct. The idea of a national caste census might be abhorrent when the stated policy is to strive for a casteless society, but it will be useful to establish statistical justification for preserving caste-based affirmative action programmes.
