Answer:
Two clauses in a sentence need to be linked by a conjunction. However, in the given sentence, the clause 'He is a rich man' is followed by another clause 'he is owning a number of buildings in Bombay' without a conjunction in between. Hence, this is grammatically incorrect.
If part (b) is changed to an adjective phrase i.e., 'who owns', it can effectively describe the subject, 'a rich man'. So, the modified sentence would be: (a) He is a rich man (b) who owns (c) a number of buildings in Bombay.
As part (b) has to be modified, it is the erroneous part and option B is the correct answer.
Options A and C are incorrect as these parts do not have any error. Option D is incorrect as the error is in part (b).
