Question
Four statements have been mentioned below. Choose the incorrect statement.
A. The Supreme Court’s latest rebuke of a government body over hazardous air pollution in Delhi is warranted, given the persistently tardy response to the crisis.Â
B. It is a damning indictment of official inaction that, even after two decades of judicial intervention, the apex court finds the little to show by way of durable outcomes.Â
C. The Delhi government has claimed that 2025 saw the city record its cleanest air in eight years due to targeted interventions.
D. While air quality did improve last year—the first eight months were the cleanest in eight years barring the lockdown year of 2020—this was largely due to frequent monsoon rains. E. All are correct
Solution
Using “the little” in this context is incorrect and breaks the sentence. Correct constructions would be: “finds little to show…” “finds that there is little to show…”
