    B Consensus Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Squabbles Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Engaged Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All are correct Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ‘Decisive’ means – producing a definite result, whereas ‘divisive’ means – tending to cause disagreement, the context of the sentence talks about divisive issues. So, ‘decisive’ is incorrect here ‘Consensus’ – a general agreement ‘Squabbles’ – trivial matter ‘Engaged’ – busy; occupied
