SSC CGL 2023 Tier-I Official Paper (Held On: 25 Jul 2023 Shift 2)

Answer 1

The correct answer is: "With an opposition."

Key Points

The part of the sentence that contains the error is "with an opposition."
It should be replaced with "with the opposition."
The use of the definite article "the" is appropriate before a singular noun like "opposition" when referring to a specific group or entity.
In this case, it is not just any opposition but a particular one, and therefore, "the" should precede "opposition" to indicate that it is a specific group with which the relations have improved.
Corrected sentence: Anti-party activities improved my relations with the opposition.
The correction ensures grammatical accuracy by using the definite article "the" before the singular noun "opposition" in the context of a specific political group or entity.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 4.
