e) No correction required

Answer: (c)

‘Pursue’ and ‘pursuit’ are two different words. ‘Pursue’ is a verb while ‘pursuit’ is a noun. ‘Pursuit’ cannot be replaced by ‘pursue’. For this reason, options (a) and (c) are ruled out.

Moreover when we do something to get something we say ‘in pursuit of’. Hence the correct option is (b).

a) of any town

b) any other town

c) that of any town

d) No improvement

Answer: (b)

Usually comparison is done between two similar things. Here comparison of population of Tokyo is being done with the population of any town of India. It is better to write ‘that of’ for population, rather than writing ‘population of’ twice.

Therefore replace bold part with ‘that of any town’.
