Question
Find out the error according to the grammar and
context of the given sentences. If there is no error, mark option 5, i.e. No error. (Ignore the punctuation errors, if any.) It is puzzling that some of the (a)/ well-known corporate leader (b)/ in the country have been urging (c)/ Indians to work longer hours.(d)/no error (e)Solution
The phrase "some of the" suggests that we are talking about multiple individuals (plural). However, "leader" is singular, which creates a mismatch in number. Hence, "leader" should be replaced with "leaders" to match the plural context. Corrected Sentence: "It is puzzling that some of the well-known corporate leaders in the country have been urging Indians to work longer hours."
