Question
Any further delay in helping the sector to get back on
track would cause __________ damage, since the threat of the sector being taken over by bus-aggregator firms based in other States is_____________ large.Solution
The word ‘irreparable’ means ‘impossible to repair or make right again’. The word ‘looming’ means ‘(of something unwanted or unpleasant) about to happen soon and causing worry’. These two words are appropriate here. Any further delay in helping the sector to get back on track would cause irreparable damage, since the threat of the sector being taken over by bus-aggregator firms based in other States is looming large.
