Correct Answer: Neetu have been


Solution : The error lies in the first option.

This sentence contains a subject-verb agreement in this part.

Neetu is singular and thus has should be used in place of have to make the sentence grammatically accurate and convey the intended meaning.

The correct sentence is: " Neetu has been waiting for me since 10 a.m."
