Pavan returned back home / when he completed / his assignment abroad.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct asnwer is option 2 i.e. Pavan returned back home

  • The word "back" is redundant in this context, as the verb "returned" already implies the idea of coming back or returning to a place.
  • Hence, the word "back" can be removed to make the sentence more concise and grammatically correct.

Thus the correct sentence would be: Pavan returned home when he completed his assignment abroad.
