| List-I | List-II | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| (A) Kavya and her cousin have been selected for the state kabaddi camp. | (IV) have | The subject is Kavya and her cousin. Two people joined by “and” take a plural verb. |
| (B) The headmaster, together with two senior teachers, has left for Lucknow for a training workshop. | (II) has | The subject is the headmaster. A phrase with “together with” does not change it, so the verb is singular. |
| (C) The injured from the bus accident are now out of danger. | (III) are | The injured means the people who were hurt. “The” + a describing word for a group of people takes a plural verb. |
| (D) There is a long queue outside the ration shop every Monday morning. | (I) is | After “there”, the verb agrees with the noun that comes after it. A long queue is singular. |
