Correct option is B
Option (b) contains an error.
Explanation:
· The phrase
"medicines increased" is incorrect because "since" refers to a specific point in time and should be followed by the
present perfect tense (e.g., "have increased").
· Correct Sentence: "Due to the pandemic, the prices of medicines have increased every day since last December."
Grammatical Rule:
· Use the present perfect tense with "since" to describe an action that started at a specific time in the past and continues up to the present.
Example:
· Incorrect: He worked here since 2020.
· Correct: He has worked here since 2020.
