Correct Answer: 2
Solution : The correct choice is the second option.
Explanation : There is an error in the phrase "you leaving" in the given sentence. We will use "your" in place of "you". "Your" is a possessive pronoun which is followed by the gerund form of the verb.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "We insist on your leaving the meeting immediately."
