Correct Answer: Sita spotted golden


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

The explanation for the error:

In the original sentence, the word "deer" is used as a countable noun, so it should be preceded by the indefinite article a to refer to a single deer.

So, the correct sentence would be: " Sita spotted a golden deer and requested Rama to capture it."
