The correct answer is 'Option 1' i.e. 'fair; fare'.
Key Points
  • The first blank requires a noun used to describe an event or gathering, and the second blank needs a term for a type of charge or cost.
  • 'Fair' is a term used to describe a gathering or event, often for entertainment or trading purposes (मेला), which suits the first blank.
  • 'Fare' refers to the money paid for a journey on public transport (किराया), fitting the second blank.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: 'I want to see the Dussehra fair in Delhi, what is the second-class railway fare from Agra to Delhi. '
Additional Information
  • 'Fare; fair' (Option 2) swaps the words, making the sentence grammatically incorrect and contextually incoherent.
  • 'Fair; fair' (Option 3) and 'fare; fare' (Option 4) both use the same word for two different contexts, which is incorrect.
