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. Investors have concerned for the slowdown in GDP growth and rising inflationary pressures.Solution
“Have concerned” is incorrect because "concerned" here is an adjective, not a verb in perfect tense. The correct structure is " are concerned over/about " to indicate a present state of worry. "Over" is also commonly used in economic contexts.
