Which part of the following sentence contains a grammatical error?

Despite the merger, (a)/ the airline has reported (b)/ sizeable losses and is unable (c)/ to pay their employees. (d)

The state government (a)/ has send reports (b)/ to the centre (c)/ on the situation. (d)

Replace ‘send’ with ‘sent’.

Instead of the phrase ‘nearing grocery store to’ we should use ‘near by grocery store to’.
