A Correct answer
Explanation

(1) When we enter Chennai from the north. Error of modifier. If the modifying clause does not have a subject, the modified clause ought to begin with the subject. Since this needs the entire sentence to be changed, the best course is to introduce the subject we in the modifying clause.
