Correct Answer: The man who was present
Solution : The fourth option is the correct choice.
In this context, the pronoun who is the correct relative pronoun to use when referring to a person. "Whom" is used in formal writing or when the relative pronoun is the object of a preposition, but in this sentence, "who" correctly introduces the relative clause describing the man.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: The man who was present at the meeting spoke against the chairperson.
