Correct option is B
The correct option is (b).
• Explanation: In the sentence “Each of the players was given a new jersey”, the subject is “Each”, which is singular.
• Therefore, the singular verb “was” is correctly used.
• The sentence is grammatically correct in terms of subject-verb agreement.
Grammar Rule involved (English/ Hindi):
• Words like each, every, either, neither are treated as singular and take a singular verb.
• “Each” एकवचन माना जाता है, इसलिए इसके साथ singular verb का प्रयोग होता है।
Explanation of Other Options:
• (a): “Committee” is used with singular reference here, so “has” would be more appropriate than “have”.
• (c): “Neither” is singular, so “is” should be used instead of “are”.
• (d): The subject is “bouquet”, which is singular, so “was” should be used instead of “were”.
So the correct answer is (b)
