Identify the error in the sentence given below:

1. After knowing truth / 2. they took the right decision / 3. in the matter / 4. and punished the real culprits.

Solution

The phrase 'knowing truth' implies continuity and not a sudden epiphany or realisation. Since the people ('they') punish the culprits after realising the truth, there should not be a continuation but a sudden change alluded to. The sentence has no grammatical or contextual error except in part (1). The correct answer, therefore, is option A.
