      Question

      They involved the SC verdict in a diary case to point

      out that investigation against a person can be ordered only when there is prima facie evidence against the person and not on the base of diary entry or allegation. (A) invoked, emphasise, basis (B) necessitated, ignore, foundation (C) argued, exhilarate, bias In each of the questions given below, a sentence is given with three words in bold. Three answer choices are given giving replacements to the words in bold. Select the option that gives the correct combination of the answer choices. In case, the sentence is correct as it is, select ‘No Improvement’ as the answer.
      A Both A and C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Both B and C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Only A Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Only B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E No Improvement Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The words ‘involved’, ‘argued’ and ‘necessitated’ cannot be used at the first space, whereas, ‘invoked’ is correct, as it means ‘cite or appeal to (someone or something) as an authority for an action or in support of an argument’. The word ‘point out’ and ‘emphasise’ is correct, but ‘ignore’ would make the statement contradictory and ‘exhilarate’ is inappropriate. As for the last word, ‘basis’ or ‘foundation’ is correct.
