New: SSC Stenographer Application Form 2024 Released
Don't Miss: Month-wise current affairs
Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: is being advise
Solution : The error lies in the fourth option.
The error lies in the verb form. "Advise" is incorrect because it is in the base form, whereas it should be in the past participle form to form the passive voice with the helping verb "is being". The correct form is "advised".
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: The staff is being advised to maintain distance while seated in the office.
