The Sri Lankan President is in the ________________position of tackling bankruptcy.

Correct option is D

Correct Answer: D (unenviable)

Explanation:

Sentence:
The Sri Lankan President is in the ________________ position of tackling bankruptcy.

We need a word that fits both grammatically and contextually.

Option Analysis:

A) dawdle
Meaning: to waste time / move slowly
Hindi: समय बर्बाद करना
Not suitable as it is a verb, not an adjective for “position”.

B) ignoring
Meaning: not paying attention
Hindi: अनदेखा करना
Grammatically incorrect in this structure.

C) proclaiming
Meaning: announcing publicly
Hindi: घोषणा करना
Contextually irrelevant.

D) unenviable
Meaning: not desirable or pleasant
Hindi: ईर्ष्या योग्य नहीं / कठिन स्थिति
Fits perfectly: “unenviable position” is a correct and commonly used phrase.

E) hasten
Meaning: to hurry
Hindi: जल्दी करना
Verb form, not suitable.

Final Sentence:
The Sri Lankan President is in the unenviable position of tackling bankruptcy.

Final Answer: D
