Correct Answer: (1)


Solution : The sentence can be improved using the first option .

The word "comes" should replace the word "originates" to convey the intended meaning that one of the students in the group hails from Leh. "Come" is commonly used to describe the place of origin of someone.

There is an error in the use of the proper verb in the sentence.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "One of our students comes from Leh."
