Answer: Option B Answer: (b)Posit [verb] means ‘to put forward as a fact or as a basis for argument’. The meaning of the word is irrelevant in the context of the given blanks. Similarly, the meaning of the words ‘belonged’, ‘imprinted’ and ‘altered’ is irrelevant in the context of the given blanks. The Teen Murti Complex should be ‘attributed’ to Nehru Ji.
