Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The error lies in the first part of the sentence:
Having deprived of their houses should be changed to having been deprived of their houses.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: Having been deprived of their houses in the recent earthquake, they had no other option but to take shelter in a school.
