Direction: The sentences given in each question, when properly sequenced, form a coherent paragraph. Each sentence is labelled with a letter. Choose the most logical order of the sentences from amongst the given choices so as to form a coherent paragraph.
-

B. The National Urban Housing and Habitat Policy of the United Progressive Alliance Government seeks to make access to housing, long acknowledged as a fundamental right, a reality for all.
C. The task is staggering even if we go by conservative estimates.
D. The housing shortage to be met during the Plan is 26.53 million units, which include the backlog from the 10th Plan.
E. If the existing stock of poor quality dwellings and the growing urbanization–driven demand are taken into account, the real deficit will be even higher.
-
- A D B E C
- A C D E B
- A B E D C
- A B C D E
Correct Option: D
On the basis of given paragraph , we follow sentence formation as :-
Clearly C must be followed by D, which must be further followed by the E as E reitrates the housing shortage and says that the real deficit will be even higher. D and E provide the statistical proof of the staggering task mentioned in C. So this leads us to two options (b) and (d). Among them (b) seems to be more appropriate as B again emphasises on but is being said is A and also that B cannot be the concluding statement of the paragraph.So , required sequence will be A B C D E .
