    Solution

    Here, ‘suite’ is incorrect. It means ‘a set of connected rooms, especially in a hotel’. The correct word is ‘suit’, as in a legal suit. The body of priests not only said any communal tension would have an adverse impact on the economy of the temple town but also sought to become a party to the suit , saying it didn’t want any change in the complex.
