Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Correction: replace “mythics” with “mythical.”
Explanation:
“Mythics” is a noun (plural) meaning myths; it does not function as an adjective to modify “Sarasvati River.”
Use an adjective instead: “mythical” (more common) or “mythic” are correct adjectival forms. “Mythical Sarasvati River” is the most natural phrasing.
Corrected sentence:
The Centre has reconstituted an advisory committee to chalk out a plan for studying the mythical Sarasvati River for the next two years, after the earlier panel's term ended in 2019.
Note: The other parts of the sentence — “reconstituted,” the expression “chalk out a plan,” and the use of “earlier” — are all correct.
