- A(a)
- B(b)
- C(c)
- D(d) No error
Explanation
The correlative pair is ‘No sooner … than’: ‘No sooner did I reach there than the children left the place.’ Part (b) wrongly begins with ‘the children’ instead of ‘than the children’. Part (c) is grammatically fine. Hence the error is in part (b), option (b).
