✅ Correct Option: 2

This question tests parallelism in "not only...but also" constructions and proper preposition usage.

When using "not only...but also," both parts must have the same grammatical structure, like matching puzzle pieces. You "raise awareness ON" something (not just "raise awareness" something). Think of it as putting spotlight ON issues.

Option 1 → "Those of" creates awkward reference and breaks the parallel structure.

Option 2 → Perfect parallelism with "on the plight...but also on that of."

Option 3 → Missing "on" after "raised awareness" - grammatically incomplete phrase.

Option 4 → Missing "on" and breaks parallelism between "plight of" and "on."
