New: SSC Stenographer Application Form 2024 Released
Don't Miss: Month-wise current affairs
Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: have never come
Solution : The third option is correct.
The subject of the sentence is "Mr. Ramesh and his friends", and when using a compound subject connected by "and", the verb should agree with the entire subject. In this case, the plural subject "Mr. Ramesh and his friends", requires the plural verb "have" instead of "has". So, the correction is to use "have" instead of "has" to ensure subject-verb agreement.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: Mr. Ramesh and his friends have never come here .
