    D.

    with

    Correct option is A


    The correct option to fill in the blank is (a) from.
    Explanation: The preposition “from” shows the point of origin or separation. The sentence means the cup moved away from the speaker’s hand. (से) Hence, “slipped from my hand” is correct.
    Example: The phone slipped from my hand and fell on the floor.
    Explain why other options are incorrect:
    · (b) To: shows direction towards something (की ओर) – incorrect here.
    · (c) By: shows agency or proximity (द्वारा / पास) – incorrect.
    · (d) With: indicates association or possession (के साथ) – incorrect.
