Choose the correct meaning for the underlined words.
The Mayor appointed an ad hoc committee to study the project.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) - Concerned with a particular purpose only.
The phrase "ad hoc" refers to something formed or created for a specific purpose and not intended to be permanent.
In the given sentence:
✔ "The Mayor appointed an ad hoc committee to study the project."
- This means that the committee was formed specifically to study the project
OTHER OPTIONS
"Concerned with Municipal Commission." → Incorrect, as "ad hoc" does not specifically refer to municipal work.
"Concerned with Elected member." → Incorrect, because "ad hoc" describes temporary committees, not elected members.
"Concerned with cleaning of Municipal Area." → Incorrect, since "ad hoc" means temporary and purpose-specific, not necessarily related to municipal cleaning.
