Question : In the sentence, identify the segment which contains the grammatical error. Across his morning walk on a beach in Mamallapuram, Prime Minister Modi was seen picking up plastic litter, bottles, and other items.
Option 1: Across his morning walk
Option 2: picking up plastic litter
Option 3: on a beach in Mamallapuram
Option 4: Prime Minister Modi was seen
Correct Answer: Across his morning walk
Solution : The error lies in the first option.
The correct preposition to use in this context is During instead of Across.
Across typically indicates movement from one side to another, and it doesn't align well with the context of describing an activity during a walk. On the other hand, during is a more appropriate preposition when expressing that an action occurred within a particular time frame or simultaneously with another event.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "During his morning walk on a beach in Mamallapuram, Prime Minister Modi was seen picking up plastic litter, bottles, and other items".
