Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the highlighted segment in the given sentence. If there is no need to substitute it, select ‘No substitution’.
Holi is a festival of revelry and camaraderie which is celebrated between the country.

Correct option is D

The correct substitution of the highlighted words is (d) celebrated across the country.
Explanation:
The phrase “between the country” is grammatically incorrect because “between” is used for two entities. In the context of describing the widespread celebration of a festival throughout a nation, the preposition "across" is more appropriate. “Celebrated across the country” means it is celebrated throughout the length and breadth of the country.
Grammatical rule used:
➡ Use ‘across’ when referring to something happening over the entire area of a region/place.
Example:
✅ Diwali is celebrated across India with great enthusiasm.
