Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The error lies in the first option.
The error is in the plural form, traffickings. The word traffickings should be replaced with trafficking to maintain the proper singular form. The event is observed against both "drug abuse" and illicit trafficking, and "trafficking" should be singular in this context.
The correct sentence is: "The International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking is observed on June 26th."
