Back to paper

Parts of the following sentence have been underlined and given as options. Select the option that contains an error.

I had gone to Siliguri before I go to Raiganj.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. go. 

  • The sentence is describing two past actions, and the correct tense usage should reflect that.

  • Since "I had gone to Siliguri" is in the past perfect tense, indicating an action completed before another past action, the second action should also be in the past tense for consistency.

The correct form should be: "I had gone to Siliguri before I went to Raiganj."
