The underlined segment in the given sentence does not need substitution. It is already grammatically correct:

The Ghats in Benaras were very crowded but we were able to watch the Ganga aarti clearly.

The correct sentence should be:

He couldn’t believe it at first, so the more he thought about it, the more he decided it must be true.

Explanation: The phrase "the most he thought about it" should be replaced with "the more he thought about it" for the sentence to be grammatically correct. The phrase "the more" is used to indicate an increase in intensity or degree, which is appropriate in this context.

The correct sentence should be:

This appears to be the handiwork of someone who belongs to a criminal gang.

Explanation: The original sentence has a verb tense issue. "To belong" should be replaced with "belongs" to maintain the correct present tense form in this context.

The correct sentence should be:

Four people were injured after a car suddenly came to a halt in outer Delhi.

Explanation: The phrase "came to a halt" is the correct idiom, indicating the action of stopping suddenly. The original sentence, "came for a halt," is incorrect.

The correct sentence should be:

It was he who encouraged me when I was feeling low.

Explanation: In formal English, the pronoun "he" is used after the verb "was" to function as the subject complement in this sentence. Additionally, the objective form of the pronoun "me" should be used, and the verb "encouraged" should be followed by the object pronoun "me."

The correct sentence should be:

She was too startled at first to say anything, but finally, she blurted out the truth.

Explanation: The phrase "to say something" is the appropriate choice here. The verb "startled" is typically followed by an infinitive verb form, so "to say" is used. Additionally, the sentence benefits from proper punctuation, including a comma after "first" and another after "finally."

The correct sentence should be:

On winter evenings, a haze of smog hangs in Delhi.

Explanation: The verb "hangs" agrees with the singular subject "haze." In the original sentence, "hang" is incorrect in this context.

The correct sentence should be:

There were ten children in the class, six of whom were crying.

Explanation: In the original sentence, "which" is incorrect because it refers to things, not people. Instead, "whom" should be used to refer to the children, and the verb "was" should be corrected to "were" to agree with the plural subject "six children."
