Question 1642
In the question given below a sentence is given and it is divided in three parts I,II,III. For each part a correction statement is also given. You have to determine which part requires correction and mark it as your answer. The court directed Assam State NRC Coordinator / Prateek Hajela to file a report on the ramifications of / the government's proposal to be submitted fresh documents. I The court had directed Assam State NRC Coordinator II Prateek Hajela to file a report on the ramification of III the government's proposal to submit fresh documents
Answer
Only III
Why?
The error lies in Part III of the sentence. 'to be+ V3' is a formation that is used to mean 'it is ideal to do something/ something has to be done.' Here none applies. It just says about the proposal submitted by the government. So need to use 'to submit' in order to make the sentence correct. So option 5 is correct. Correct sentence: The court directed Assam State NRC Coordinator Prateek Hajela to file a report on the ramifications of the government's proposal to submit fresh documents.
