Hi namrata

Of 30 questions, you marked 27 correct and 3 as incorrect. Here are the explanations:

6. Let he and me decide what to do with the present situation.
12. Let she and her daughter go home, as it is getting dark.

It shall be "Let him and me..."
It shall be "Let her & her daughter..."

22. Let he and me go to New Delhi.

This is wrong as "Let" is followed by "objective case", while you have used "nominative case", so instaed of "Let he & me", it shall be "Let him & me".


30. Luxman asked Lord Ram to permit him to attack Bharat as he has grown usurper and proud of his being the king of Ayodhya.

Here it shall be "He had grown" instead of "He has grown", as this is governed by Luxman asked
