    B CDBA Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C CBAD Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D BCAD Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No rearrangement required Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The sentence requires a nominal subject to initiate the statement. “The selective application of compliance norms” serves as the appropriate subject and must therefore begin the sentence.  This is followed by the qualifying phrase “particularly in sectors characterized by high political influence,” which specifies the context in which the phenomenon occurs. The conditional clause “when regulatory frameworks are inconsistently enforced” logically precedes the main predicate “often undermines institutional credibility,” completing the cause–effect relationship. Accordingly, the correct sequence is C–D–B–A, making option (b) the correct answer.
