Priyankacherus: plz mark as brainliest if helpful
satyaannapurna7: can you explain that how while will add in 2nd blank
SaurabhEinstein: I think while is correct
Priyankacherus: both While and when are subordinate clauses, but as the narration describes something that was continuing, indicating the continuous tense, hence the usage of while is appropriate.
satyaannapurna7: ok thanks for that explaining me
Priyankacherus: u r welcome, any feedback from ur side is also appreciated
