(a) (A)

(b) (B)

(c) (C)

(d) (D)

(e) No error

वाक्य के उस भाग की पहचान करें जिसमें व्याकरण की त्रुटि है:
(A) Despite of the stringent regulatory guidelines / (B) issued by the monetary authority, / (C) several cooperative banks failed to / (D) maintain adequate liquidity buffers.

(a) (A)

(b) (B)

(c) (C)

(d) (D)

(e) No error (कोई त्रुटि नहीं)

Correct Answer: (a)

Explanation:

Error is in part (A): ‘Despite’ does not take the preposition ‘of’. It should be either ‘Despite the stringent…’ or ‘In spite of the stringent…’. Thus, part (A) contains the error.

भाग (A) में त्रुटि है: ‘Despite’ के साथ ‘of’ का प्रयोग नहीं किया जाता है (केवल ‘In spite of’ होता है)। अतः भाग (A) में त्रुटि है।
