    Question

    In the given sentence, identify the segment which contains the grammatical error.
    The government has announced a gradual reboot of air travel who was halted two months ago due to lockdown.

    A.

    reboot of air travel

    B.

    due to lockdown

    C.

    The government has announced

    D.

    who was halted

    Correct option is D

    Option (d) contains an error.
    Explanation: “Who was halted” is incorrect because “who” refers to persons. Here, “air travel” is a thing, not a person, so the correct relative pronoun is “which”.
    Correct sentence: The government has announced a gradual reboot of air travel which was halted...
    Grammatical rule used:
    · Use “who” for people
    · Use “which” for things
    · Use “that” for both people and things (in restrictive clauses)
    Example:
    Incorrect: The car who broke down was new.
    Correct: The car which broke down was new.
