- A1
- B2
- C3
- D4
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
The error lies in part (2) of the sentence.
The phrase "enough to" should be followed by the base form of the verb (infinitive) rather than a gerund (v-ing) in this context. Therefore, "addressing" must be replaced with "address" to make the sentence grammatically correct.
Correct Sentence: Mere adoption of a new technology may not be enough to address India's urban challenges.
