    Solution

    1- here, the past tense form of the verb should be used because in the part in bold, it is the past tense that is used. 2- ‘by’ should be changed to ‘in’. 3- ‘besides’ is correct. The government presented an exclusive agriculture budget, installed a real-time monitoring dashboard in the Chief Minister’s office and took steps to implement the many schemes, besides posting young officers as Collectors and announcing more municipal corporations.
