The fight of the cobra and the mongoose / is a classic drama often seen in India, / and

Correct option is D

The error is in part (d). The rest of the sentence is in the present tense ("is a classic drama often seen"), so the verb in the clause "and the outcome was largely the same" should also be in the present tense to maintain consistency.
