    A A-C and B-D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B A-D and B-C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only B-C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D A-B and C-D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No exchange required Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    A - D: The original sentence had "public crisis" in part A, and I changed it to "energy" to improve the coherence and context of the sentence. It makes more sense in the context of a debate on science and technology. B - C: The original sentence had "agency beliefs" in part B, and I changed it to "superstitious" for better grammatical structure and meaning. The phrase "superstitious to promote energy" doesn't make sense, so this change enhances the sentence's clarity and logic. The corrected sentence conveys that the DST (Department of Science and Technology) formed a committee or initiative to promote a debate on science and technology in response to emerging societal challenges such as public crises and agency beliefs.
