Correct Answer: (2)


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

"Justice" is an abstract noun, and it cannot take the definite article "the" as "the" is only used when we refer to a specific person, place, or thing. Thus, "the" should be omitted.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "He always practises justice and cares for moral principles."
