Correct Answer: celebrated across the country.


Solution : The fourth option is the correct answer.

The original sentence contains a preposition that does not convey the intended meaning. The correct usage should express the widespread celebration of Holi throughout the country. So, "celebrated across the country" is the most suitable choice, as it accurately conveys the idea of a festival celebrated throughout the entire nation.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "Holi is a festival of revelry and camaraderie celebrated across the country. "
