Question
Directions : Which of the following phrases (I), (II)
and (III) given below the sentence should replace the emboldened phrase to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct. Choose the best option among the five given alternatives that reflects the correct use of the phrase in the given sentence. If the sentence is correct as it is, mark (e) i.e., ‘No correction required’ as the answer. The very fact that Russian President arrive in India for an in-personal summit was the most important takeaway from his six hours in New Delhi. I. arrived in India for an in-person summit II. arrive in India for an in-person summit        III. arriving in India for a personal summitSolution
As the sentence is mentioned in past tense, thus second form of verb (v2) ‘arrived’ should be used. Also, the idea here is to mention that in the ‘summit’, the Russian President had an individual presence, thus ‘in-person’ is the best phrase to be used here. These correct combinations are mentioned only in I while II and II are incorrect. Hence, option D is the correct answer.
