Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Lack of training manpower.
The error lies in part 3 of the statement because of the wrong use of the adjective.
Concept-
- We need to replace 'training' with 'trained' to make the statement grammatically correct.
- 'Training manpower' means 'manpower who is training', but the sentence requires 'manpower who is trained'.
- So we need to use 'trained' at the place of 'training'.
The correct sentence will be-
The biggest problem faced by all developing countries is the lack of trained manpower.
