Online matrimonial sites are becoming extremely popular in India where anxious parents endeavor to fix the best of spouses for their wards, and eligible candidates choose suitable spouses after preliminary rounds of enquiries


where anxious parents endeavor to fix the best of spouses for their wards, and eligible candidates choose suitable mates after preliminary rounds of enquiries :- Biggest flaw is where, only use where with physical space

in which anxious parents endeavor to fix the best of spouses for their wards, and eligible candidates choose suitable mates after preliminary rounds of enquiries :- Well well well, in which here is okay, and parents find good spouse and bachelors find mates parallel and concise ( but this conclusion was reached after POE)

in which anxious parents endeavor and fix the best spouse for their wards, and choose eligible candidates after preliminary rounds of enquiries :- The meaning is skewed how can parents fix spouse for their wards and then choose eligible candidates, isnt both the same things.

which help anxious parents fix the best of spouses for their wards, and eligible candidates choose suitable mates after preliminary rounds of enquiries :- Which without comma, i dont see any further

an exchange where anxious parents endeavor to fix the best of spouses for their wards, and choose eligible candidates after preliminary rounds of enquiries :- an exchange where, wroooong

Chose A over B

Thought 'where' seems to modify the whole clause before it(breaking the touch rule); seemed less awkward than 'in which'
Would a comma before 'where' would have made a difference ?

There is no way we can allow "in which" to jump over the entire preceding clause to modify the subject "sites." I don't think you'll find a single official question that allows this. Also, there's not enough reason to eliminate A. We can't say it's wrong that all those things happen in India, which is after all the site of action. In any case, a proper SC question will have difference at the ends of the answers, not just one difference at the beginning.

Another poorly constructed question in my view.

Not saying B is wrong, but there is no ground to eliminate A.

I understand the difference between "where" and "in which" here. But the option E, is it not an example of noun+noun modifier? Where the part "an exchange.." is referreing to the entire preceeding clause?

In such cases, I would (at the very least) expect a comma after the clause (after "India" in this case).

Oh yes! Wow I can't believe I imagined a comma before option E!

Thank you.
