    Question

    Parts of the following sentence have been given as options. Select the option that contains a grammatical error.
    The Chairman instructed the managers that he shall been holding a meeting in Alberto Hall tomorrow evening.

    A.

    managers that he

    B.

    shall been holding a meeting

    C.

    in Alberto Hall tomorrow evening.

    D.

    The Chairman instructed the

    Correct option is B


    Option (b) shall been holding a meeting contains the error.
    ✅ Detailed Explanation:
    The verb form “shall been” is incorrect. In future continuous tense, the correct structure is “shall be + present participle (verb+ing)”. “Been” is used only in perfect tenses, not in continuous ones. Therefore, it should be “shall be holding a meeting.”
    Correct phrase: shall be holding
    Hindi meaning: बैठक आयोजित करेगा (भविष्य में प्रक्रिया जारी होगी)
    Use in a sentence: He shall be holding the press conference tomorrow.
    Meanings of the other options:
    · (a) managers that he – Grammatically fine; no error
    Hindi: प्रबंधकों को बताया कि वह... – सही प्रयोग है।
    · (c) in Alberto Hall tomorrow evening – Correct location and time phrase
    Hindi: अल्बर्टो हॉल में कल शाम – कोई त्रुटि नहीं।
    · (d) The Chairman instructed the – Proper introductory clause
    Hindi: अध्यक्ष ने निर्देश दिया – कोई त्रुटि नहीं।
