Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
To identify the correct connector for the sentence "Aniruddh has just gone back to Bangalore, ______, he can't come back to Delhi so soon," we need to analyze the logical relationship between the two clauses.
Logical Analysis
Clause 1 (Cause): "Aniruddh has just gone back to Bangalore" (The reason).
Clause 2 (Effect): "he can't come back to Delhi so soon" (The result/consequence).
Because the second clause is a direct outcome of the first, we need a conjunctive adverb that expresses cause and effect.
Conclusion
The most appropriate option is Option 1: therefore. The completed sentence is: "Aniruddh has just gone back to Bangalore, therefore, he can't come back to Delhi so soon."
