    Correct synonym: (a) Thin
    Meaning of the given word (Flimsy):
    Flimsy → weak and easily damaged; not strong; thin and delicate; not solid (Hindi: कमज़ोर / नाज़ुक / पतला-सा / टिकाऊ नहीं)

    Meaning of the correct option (Thin):
    Thin → having small thickness; not thick; often easily torn if material is thin (Hindi: पतला)
