    Correct option is A


    The incorrect segment is (a) to do same.
    · The phrase "to do same" is incorrect because "same" needs a determiner before it.
    · The correct phrase should be "to do the same."
    Correct Sentence: "People who have overcome personal challenges can inspire others to do the same."
    Grammatical Rule Used:
    · "Same" is a demonstrative pronoun that usually requires "the" before it when referring back to something previously mentioned.
    · Example:
    · Incorrect: She bought a dress, and I bought same.
    · Correct: She bought a dress, and I bought the same.
    व्याकरण संबंधी नियम (Grammatical Rule in Hindi):
    · "Same" एक प्रदर्शक सर्वनाम (Demonstrative Pronoun) है, जो पहले संदर्भित किसी चीज़ की पुनरावृत्ति करता है।
    · इसके पहले "the" लगाना आवश्यक होता है, क्योंकि यह किसी निश्चित चीज़ की ओर इशारा करता है।
    उदाहरण:
    ❌ गलत: वह एक नई किताब लाया और मैंने भी same खरीदी।
    ✔️ सही: वह एक नई किताब लाया और मैंने भी the same खरीदी।
