Correct Answer: 2
Solution : The correct choice is the second option.
Explanation : This alternative provides a more appropriate preposition ("over") to convey the idea of being amazed or taken aback by the Indian vote. "Over" is commonly used in this context to indicate surprise or shock related to a particular event or situation.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: " The surprise over the Indian vote was not because it fell out of line with the country's foreign policy as we know."
