Read each sentence to find out whether there is any error in any underlined part and indicate your response in the Answer Sheet against the corresponding letter i.e., (a) or (b) or (c). If you find no error, your response should be indicated as (d).

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) he will never feel at home anywhere else in the world.

Explanation:

C) before he embraced Buddhism.	D) No error

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) have conquered Kalinga
