Directions (): Each of the following questions has a paragraph from which one sentence has been deleted. From the given options, choose the one that completes the paragraph in the most appropriate/coherent way.

Is not to be adjudged as a vote bank, for no school going girl child was a voter

to be the harbinger of wisdom and education in the form of Saraswati, anointed by the Gods

to ensure toilets are separately built for girls in government schools

None of these

Explanation:

The paragraph is describing about declaration made PM regarding the sanitation needs of young female. Therefore, the most appropriate phrase that will fill the blank of the paragraph, adhering to the absolute context of the paragraph is “to ensure toilets are separately built for girls in government schools”. The hint for the same can be drawn from the phrase […that when sanitation needs of young female students are met…]. Moreover, option (b) is incorrect as the latter part of the paragraph suggests the need for sanitation of young women, which should have some relevance with the previous part of the paragraph; option (b) fails to provide any such information and thus cannot be used to complete the paragraph. Hence, option (d) is the most suitable answer choice.
