__________, the Government of India has followed the policy of trying to improve relations with its neighbours.
Options
- AParticular
- BKnowingly
- COtherwise
- DIn general
Correct answer
D. In general
Step-by-step solution
The sentence requires a discourse marker that introduces a broad or overall statement. 'In general' is used to indicate that a statement is mostly true or true in most situations. It fits perfectly in the context of describing the overall policy of the Government of India. 'Particular' is an adjective and would require 'In' to function as a discourse marker. 'Knowingly' and 'Otherwise' do not fit the context of the sentence.
Thus, the complete sentence is: 'In general, the Government of India has followed the policy of trying to improve relations with its neighbours.'
Answer: In general
Thus, the complete sentence is: 'In general, the Government of India has followed the policy of trying to improve relations with its neighbours.'
