    Solution

    As per the information given below, the correct answer is option D. UK deputy prime minister Dominic Raab resigned on Friday, a day after a report was submitted into bullying allegations. Raab dismissed the allegations in his resignation letter and said, "duty bound to accept the outcome of the inquiry". "Dismissed all but two of the claims levelled against me," he added. Raab also denied claims he belittled and demeaned his staff and said he “behaved professionally at all times,” but had said he would resign if the bullying complaints were upheld. Raab, 49, was first elected to Parliament in 2010 and has served in senior government posts including justice secretary and foreign secretary. Appointed deputy prime minister under Boris Johnson, he briefly took charge of the government when Johnson was hospitalized with Covid-19 in April 2020.
