In the following sentence, a part of the sentence is underlined. Below are given alternatives to the underlined part, which may improve the sentence. Choose the correct alternative. In case no improvement is needed, choose the option ‘No improvement’. A section of farmers also urged the district administration to take steps for sanction of compensation farmers whose maize crops were damaged by the Fall Armyworm, an invasive pestilent.  Correct Answer Invasive pest

The sentence uses the form 'invasive petilent'. which is incorrect and needs improvement.

Invasive - (adjective)  tending to spread quickly and harmfully.

Pestilent - (adjective) destructive to life, deadly.

The sentence uses the adjective form 'pestilent', which is incorrect here as it is used with another adjective. So, it must be in its noun form 'pest', meaning a destructive insect.

The only alternative that improves the sentence is 'Invasive pest'.

None of the other alternatives can make the sentence meaningful.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 2.
