The error lies in the part Q of the sentence. Therefore, the correct answer is option 2.
The tense of the word ‘blame’ has been incorrectly used. The correct tense to be used is past – ‘blamed’.
The first and the last part of the sentence use past tense of the verbs. In order to maintain the grammatical consistency of the sentence, the verb blame in the part Q of the sentence should also be used in past tense.
Correct sentence - India’s economy rebounded strongly from July 2017, after several quarters of slowdown blamed on economic policies pursued by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government.
