Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

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

  • Option A: "As a nation, India is a united country and shall always remain so." - This sentence is correct.

  • The article "a" is correctly used before "nation".

  • "A united" is correct because "united" begins with a consonant sound, so "a" is appropriate, not "an."

Thus, Option A is the correct choice.
