    Solution

    (B): "since delimitation has remained a contentious issue" — This is the best starting point because it introduces the subject of the sentence: the contentious issue regarding delimitation.(A): "the Union government" — This follows logically as it specifies who has to take action.(D): "should build a consensus on the terms of" — This part introduces the need for consensus-building on the terms.(C): "reference for the next Delimitation Commission" — Finally, this gives the context that the terms are for the next Delimitation Commission.Thus, the correct sentence order is:"Since delimitation has remained a contentious issue, the Union government should build a consensus on the terms of reference for the next Delimitation Commission."since delimitation has remained a (B)/ contentious issue, the Union government (A)/ should build a consensus on the terms of (D)/ reference for the next Delimitation Commission (C)/
