In the following question, the sentence given with a blank is to be filled in with an appropriate word. Select the correct alternative out of the four.
Brijesh said that he has no __________ of stepping down, although he is under a lot of pressure to do so.

  1. A
    intuition
  2. B
    intention
  3. C
    point
  4. D
    object

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The sentence requires a word that indicates a plan, aim, or purpose, as Brijesh is refusing to step down despite the pressure.
intention means an aim or plan, which fits perfectly in the phrase "no intention of stepping down".

intuition means the ability to understand something instinctively, without the need for conscious reasoning, which is contextually incorrect.

point means a significant or outstanding feature, or purpose, but does not fit grammatically or contextually here.

object means a material thing or a goal, but is not used in the structure "has no object of doing something".

Therefore, intention is the most appropriate word.
