Question

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has made public its inquiry report into an incident involving a plane ________________________ Congress president Rahul Gandhi from Delhi to Karnataka in April. The ________________________ has revealed that there was a technical ________________________ in the plane, and as the response of the two pilots to the situation was delayed, the aircraft tilted sharply on one side and began to fall rapidly.

(i) Gremlin  (ii) Ferrying  (iii) Advocacy  (iv) Glitch  (v) Barging  (vi) Probe

Which set of words correctly fills the blanks in the paragraph?

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. The first blank requires a word that means transporting someone from one place to another, especially on short or regular trips. Among the options, **"ferrying"** fits perfectly as it means to carry or transport.

2. The second blank refers to the entity that conducted the investigation. The word **"probe"** means a detailed and thorough investigation, which suits the context of an inquiry report.

3. The third blank needs a term that describes a technical fault or malfunction. **"Glitch"** is the correct choice here, as it means a sudden, usually temporary fault in equipment.

4. Other options like "gremlin" (an imaginary creature blamed for faults), "barging" (moving forcefully), and "advocacy" (support or recommendation) do not fit the context.

Hence, the correct sequence is **ferrying, probe, glitch**, corresponding to option (d).

**Answer:** (d) ii, vi, iv
