In the following sentence, a part of the sentence is underlined. Below are given alternatives to the underlined part, which may improve the sentence. Choose the correct alternative. In case no improvement is needed, choose the alternative that indicates 'No improvement.'
The judiciary committee will be sanctioned by the President, in accordance to the section 2a of the law.
A. As accordance to
B. In accordance with
C. According to
The sentence uses the noun form 'accordance', which means 'relating to or in a manner relating with' something. The preposition 'to' used here, however, is incorrect.
The correct preposition to be used here becomes 'with', wherein 'in accordance with' something means 'in agreement with' something. So, B is correct, A is incorrect.
C uses the progressive form 'according to', which also reflects the same meaning, viz, 'in relation to' or 'as per' something. So, C is correct.
Both B and C are correct and improve the sentence.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 4.
