New: SSC Stenographer Application Form 2024 Released
Don't Miss: Month-wise current affairs
Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: took
Solution : The third option is the correct answer.
The original sentence has a subject-verb agreement error. "Members" is a plural noun, so the correct verb form should be "took" to match the plural subject. "Was took" is incorrect; the past tense verb "took" should be used to maintain proper grammar.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: The committee members took a unanimous decision that they would invest in startups.
