    Solution

    A-replace WHO with WHICH, as the former is used to refer to persons, while the subject THE AADHAAR PROJECT is not a living thing. 1 can replace it. B - no error. 2 is incorrect as ACTED should be replaced with ACT as the infinitive construction TO + VERB always takes the verb in its base form. C - replace BECAME with BECOME, as the present perfect tense construction HAS + VERB always takes the past participle form of the verb. 3 can replace it. Only 1 and 3 offer correct replacements, which makes (c) the right answer.
