    A Discussions, unfolding over three hours, saw Opposition MPs largely Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B supporting the reservations, but pointed out that the government’s Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C reservation policies have not translated the welfare Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D for SCs, STs and OBCs in the country Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ‘Translated’ should be followed by a preposition ‘into’ to make a correct sense. Translate into means result in. It shows what were the consequences of something. Translate solely would mean ‘decode’ or ‘change of a language or script’ which the sentence doesn’t want to intend.
