NDA 2 2026 GAT Question Paper (13-Sep-2026)
The correct answer is
when it starts raining

Sentence Completion: Staying Inside Instruction

The goal is to choose the correct word to logically and grammatically complete the sentence: "You must stay inside..."

Analyzing Options

  • Option 1: \(where\) - Refers to a place. Incorrect, as the sentence needs a time or condition reference.
  • Option 2: \(when\) - Refers to time. "Stay inside when it starts raining" correctly indicates the timing for the instruction.
  • Option 3: \(because\) - Refers to reason. While rain is a reason, "when" specifies the exact time the rule applies, which is more fitting.
  • Option 4: \(till\) - Refers to duration up to a point. This implies you are free to be outside until it rains, contradicting the instruction.

Final Sentence

The conjunction "when" correctly connects the instruction to the specific time condition. Therefore, the completed sentence is:

You must stay inside when it starts raining.
