Correct Answer: dispose off a cargo of cotton which
Solution : The error lies in the third option.
Here, "dispose off" should be replaced with 'dispose of' to make the sentence contextually meaningful and grammatically correct.
In this context, the preposition "of" should come after the verb "dispose," which means to eliminate or deal with.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: The objective was to dispose of a cargo of cotton which I had brought from Mumbai port.
