Correct Answer: diverted


Solution : The correct word to fill in the blank is the second option.

It means to change the direction or route of something. In the context of the sentence, "diverted" is the most suitable choice because it accurately conveys the idea that the flight's route was changed from its original destination (Jaipur) to Agra airport.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

Shifted: It means moving or transferring something from one place to another.

Reverted: It means returning to a previous state or condition.

Deflected: It means changing the direction of something by turning it aside.

Therefore, the correct sentence is, "Our flight was diverted from Jaipur to Agra airport."
