Fill in the blank in the following sentence with the most appropriate option:
Yamuna is more polluted than _________ river in this country.
Solution
✅ Correct Option: 4
When comparing one item with the rest of its class using a comparative degree, the correct structure is 'more... than any other + singular noun'. 'Any other river' excludes the Yamuna itself from the comparison. 'All other' would need a plural noun ('all other rivers'), and 'other'/'all of the' are ungrammatical here.
