Echo (verb): repeat (someone's words or opinions), typically to express agreement.

Detailed Solution for HP Police Constable Mock Test - 3 - Question 11

The sentence implies that the king had an efficient governance and thus is popular among people till date.

The use of ‘neglected’ is contextually incorrect. ‘Saluted’ is also weak as per the context stated. Only ‘remembered’ is the best fit as the context and grammatical reference.

Hence, option B is correct.

HP Police Constable Mock Test - 3 - Question 12

The forced exodus of the Pandits from the Valley is one of the most _______________ chapters in the sub-continent’s history, as shameful as the Sikh pogrom of 1984.

Detailed Solution for HP Police Constable Mock Test - 3 - Question 13

According to the context of the given sentence, we can understand that we are talking about the forced exile of the Pandits from the valley and it is being compared to the Sikh pogrom of 1984. Both cannot be treated with respect and appreciation. They are not some great events of history that everyone will feel proud of while going through. Rather they are dark events in the history of the country as well as the entire sub-continent. So, it can only be shameful, to say the least. 'Untruthful' will not fit in this context and so are the other words except 'shameful'. So, that is our correct word for this sentence.
