Explanation:

The error is in fragment D. The reciprocal pronouns ‘each other’ is used when we refer to two entities and ‘one another’ is used when referring to more than two.

Here ‘one another’ should be used instead of ‘each other’ in order to make the sentence correct.

The correct sentence would therefore be:

The index is a useful tool as it helps identify the problems as well as the success stories and provides an opportunity for states to learn from one another’s successes as well as failures.

Hence, option D is the correct answer.
