The appointed day has come, and India stands ________ again, after long ________ and struggle, awake, vital free and independent.
-
free, ecstasy
-
forward, bliss
-
forth, slumber
-
here, reduction
C
Correct answer
Explanation
Terms 'ecstasy' and 'bliss' shall be incorrect if used in the second blank. 'Reduction' doesn't make any sense, but 'slumber' meaning sleep or a nap is good enough to be used in the second blank. Also, 'stand forth' is the correct expression in context to the subject presented in the sentence.
