UPSC 2017 CDS II English Paper

‘Q’ will be the first part of the given sequence as ‘being corrupt’ introduces the information about ‘the officer’ and then P will follow next to maintain the subject-verb agreement rule. S will come next as it tells about the time of suspension, that is, before his dismissal. R will come next as it tells about the suspension from the service. Hence, QPSR is the right sequence. Thus, option (a) is correct.
