Question
In the question given below, there is a sentence in which
one part is given in bold. The part given in bold may or may not be grammatically correct. Choose the best alternative among the four given which can replace the part in bold to make the sentence grammatically correct. If the part given in bold is already correct and does not require any replacement, choose option (5), i.e. “No replacement required” as your answer. The finance ministry has said that a special audit have been ordered to investigate irregularities in the scheme.Solution
The subject "a special audit" is singular, so the verb must also be singular. The correct passive construction is " has been ordered " (present perfect passive). "Have been ordered" is plural and incorrect here.
