Choose the correct words with similar meaning for the underlined word in the given sentence:

A. not needed
B. supernumerary
C. meagre
D. essential
Solution
✅ Correct Option: 2
'Redundant' means more than what is needed, i.e., superfluous. 'Not needed' (A) matches directly, and 'supernumerary' (B) means exceeding the required number, so both are synonyms. 'Meagre' means scanty and 'essential' means absolutely necessary, which is the opposite. Therefore A and B only.
