    Question

    The following sentence has been divided into parts. One of them may contain an error. Select the part that contains the error from the given options. If you don’t find any error, mark ‘No error’ as your answer.
    The need today is for both sides / to introspect and re-examine the issue carefully / and resolve it amicably.

    A.

    to introspect and re-examine the issue carefully

    B.

    and resolve it amicably

    C.

    No error

    D.

    The need today is for both sides

    Correct option is C


    Explanation:
    The sentence is grammatically correct and does not contain any errors. Let's break it down:
    · “The need today is for both sides” – grammatically correct. It sets up the subject and focus of the sentence.
    · “to introspect and re-examine the issue carefully” – correct parallel structure. The infinitives “to introspect” and “to re-examine” are appropriately joined with “and.”
    · “and resolve it amicably” – maintains the parallelism with the earlier infinitives and concludes the thought logically.
    Grammar Rule:
    When using multiple infinitives in a list, they should maintain parallel structure.
    Example: She plans to visit, to study, and to relax during the break.
