In the following question, the given sentence has four parts marked P, Q, R, and S. Choose the part of the sentence with the error and mark as your answer. If there is no error, mark 'No error (S)' as your answer.
The place were (P)/ Buddha was cremated (Q)/ has recently been discovered. (R)/ No error (S)

A.

P

B.

Q

C.

R

D.

S

Correct option is A

Option (a) contains an error.
Error Identification: The word "were" is incorrect because it is used for the past tense plural form of "to be." Here, the correct word should be "where" (indicating location).
Grammatical Explanation: "Where" is used to refer to a location, while "were" is a past tense verb used for plural subjects. Since the sentence refers to the location, "where" should be used.
Corrected sentence: "The place where Buddha was cremated has recently been discovered."
Explanation: Since the sentence refers to a place (location), "where" is the correct relative pronoun.
