Option 1 : A

Correct option- 1,(A), this part contains an error.

The reflexive pronoun ‘itself’ should be used after the verb ‘resign’

Certain verbs like- acquit, avail, reconcile, amuse, exert, apply, adjust, etc when used intransitively in a sentence (when the doer and the receiver of the action are the same), need reflexive pronouns after them.

Hence, according to the subject of the sentence British government reflexive pronoun ‘itself’ should be used after the intransitive verb ‘ resign’.

The correct sentence-“ Foreseeing that the British Government must ultimately resign itself to a withdrawal of the Dardanelles army from its dangerous situation on the Gallipoli Peninsula, Monro had already, some days before the permission to evacuate reached him from home, given instructions that certain preparations were to be made towards facilitating that operation.”

The question given below consists of a statement, followed by three arguments numbered I, II and III.

Statement:  The central government has told the Supreme Court that anti-adultery laws were required to protect the ‘sanctity of marriage and the institution of family', and any attempt to do away with these laws would hurt ‘Indian ethos'. The government was responding to a court notice on a public interest litigation which wanted the law struck down as it was not gender neutral and the provisions were tilted against men. Which among the following arguments support the above statement regarding the ‘revision of such laws' in the best possible manner Arguments: I. It seemed to suggest that women were chattel owned by men and could be guided and misguided. II. This would erode the sanctity of marriage as an institution and the societal fabric. The issue of making the provision gender neutral was already pending before the government. III. Any step towards decriminalising the offence in the interim would be detrimental to Indian ethos which gives paramount importance to the institution and sanctity of marriage.?
