    Question

    In each question below, a sentence is given with a part

    of it printed in bold and underlined. That part may contain a grammatical error. Each sentence is followed by phrases a), b), c) and d). Find out which phrase should replace the phrase given in bold to correct the error, if there is any, and to make the sentence grammatically meaningful and correct. If the sentence is correct as it is and ā€˜No correction is required’, mark e) as the answer. The policy was designed not only to improve efficiency but also ensuring greater accountability across administrative levels.
    A Ensure greater accountability Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Ensured greater accountability Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C To ensure greater accountability Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Ensuring of greater accountability Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No correction required Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The construction ā€œnot only … but alsoā€ requires parallel grammatical forms. Since the first part uses the infinitive ā€œto improveā€, the second part must also use an infinitive: ā€œto ensureā€.
