E None of these
Incorrect AnswerExplanation:
Correct Answer is (a).It is obvious that Indian Air force would be involved in air related engagements, thus “aerial” is correctly placed.
Military Installations refers to the military establishments whereas fittings is absurd.
Reports happened sounds incomplete, while reports of Indo-Pak aerial engagement emerged fits the context very well.
Debase means to degrade, which is absurd to the context as the paragraph is about air space violation by Pak Air force. Thus “violated” is a better word.
Repelled means to retaliate, which is contextually more apt.
Thus the sequence is AABAA.
Hence option A is correct.
