    Solution

    In this sentence, the word "appraised" is not used correctly. The correct term should be "apprised," which means to inform or notify. Additionally, the term "abdication" is not the appropriate word to describe the revocation of Article 370. The correct term is "abrogation," which means to repeal or annul.
