English (CUET) Paragraph Completion

Fringe elements affiliated with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) have been in the news ever since the party came to power. Activists who pretend to be associated with the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal and the Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh too have had their day in the news. _________________________. First, the “fringe” is encouraged by the party as a strategy to appeal to more extreme elements within the party and to polarise politics. Second, and more specific to the right wing, some believe that these individuals’ provocative actions and remarks are indicative of the government’s tacit support for Hindutva principles.

There are two reasons of the palpable polarization in politics.

There are also local politicians who have misperceived favourable responses or miscalculated the impacts of their actions.

In our view, this results from a systemic problem with our politics.

Their two actions have served to embarrass the BJP and the Central government.

Explanation:

Correct Answer is (c).Out of all the sentences option C fits the blank most appropriately as it takes the discussion started in the paragraph further in the most logical manner.
Moreover, usage of the adjective ‘such’ before the word ‘activism’ indicates that the sentence preceding the blank must have a reference of ‘activism’ and the presence of ‘activists’ in the very beginning of the sentence validates it.
Option C is hence the correct answer.
