Both the sentences may have errors in one of the four parts or may not have any error at all. You have to find out the parts containing error and mark that alternative as the answer.Solution
I- Since the Prime Minister has already asked the people to read and share the e-book, past tense of the verb should be used for that action. So, ‘urging’ is wrong. ‘urged people to read’ is correct. II- Since government is a collective noun, it has to be considered as singular and the verb used should be singular as well. So, ‘The government has issued’ is correct.
