Option 2 : 2
The word ‘very’ in option (2) should be replaced with ‘so’.
This is because the use of ‘so’ gives the sense that the sentence requires an explanation or reasoning beyond that.
On the other hand, ‘Some provisions in the law are very tough’, reads like a complete sentence on its own and the use of ‘that’ following it seems abrupt.
The correct sentence should be:
Some provisions in the law are so tough that even a spelling mistake could be construed as fraud and lead to harsh strictures.
