Read each sentence to find out whether there is any error in any underlined part and indicate your response in the Answer Sheet against the corresponding letter i.e., (a) or (b) or (c). If you find no error, your response should be indicated as (d).

A) I courteously asked him B) where was he going
C) but he did not reply D) No error
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) where was he going

Explanation:

The error is in second part. ‘where was he going’ is a question in itself but the given sentence is assertive. So, in the correct form the verb ‘was’ will follow the pronoun ‘he’ as, ‘where he was going’.
