    Question

    The sentence below has been divided into three parts. Select the part of the sentence that has an error.
    The assembly were clearly divided in there opinion in the matters of taking necessary measures to contain the spread of the virus.

    A.

    necessary measures to contain the spread of the virus.

    B.

    in there opinion in the matters of taking

    C.

    The assembly were clearly divided

    D.

    No error

    Correct option is B

    Option (b) contains an error.
    Error Explanation: The word “there” is incorrectly used. The correct word should be “their”, which is a possessive pronoun.
    · “There” indicates place or position (वहाँ),
    · “Their” shows possession (उनका/उनकी/उनके).
    · So the correct phrase is “ in their opinion”.
    · Grammatical rule used:
    · Possessive pronouns like my, your, his, her, their are used to show ownership.
    · Example: Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
    · Information booster: Confusion between there, their, and they’re is common in error spotting. Always check the role the word plays in the sentence.
