Correct Answer: (2)


Solution : The error lies in the second part of the sentence.

The word worst should be replaced with worse to maintain proper comparative form.

The worst is the superlative form, while worse is the comparative form, which makes the sentence grammatically accurate.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "The suggestion given by him is as bad, if not worse than the one suggested by you.".
