The Full Sentence
"The Telangana peasant revolt against the Nizam of Hyderabad in the 1940s is often (R) considered to be paradigmatic (P) and the only instance worthy of attention in a comparative (S) sociological study of peasant movements in India (Q)."
Breakdown of the Logic
Step 1: (R) provides the subject ("The Telangana peasant revolt...") and ends with the verb "is often," which requires a following adjective or past participle.
Step 2: (P) starts with "considered," perfectly completing the phrase "is often considered to be..."
Step 3: (S) begins with "and," which connects the first description ("paradigmatic") to the second description ("the only instance..."). It ends with the adjective "comparative."
Step 4: (Q) provides the noun phrase "sociological study" which is naturally modified by the adjective "comparative" from the previous fragment.
