A is very obvious.

Hi Bhai,

Are you having problem with modifiers? Let me know if so.
This problem needs to be corrected ASAP.

Anand.

Hi Bhai,

Go through
https://webster.commnet.edu/grammar/phrases.htm

I am not sure if you can jump to this section But believe me you will
be a winner if you master this. Almost all the tough problems test this.

Now to the question.
Designed to encourage debate
Ask yourself a question what is designed ? it cannot be a place or a person
but some thing a human can create. Logically speaking the next sentence
fragment should convey this right?

B) Designed to encourage debate, some (people ) - hence incorrect
C) Designed to encourage debate, it (something) - this may be ok but what does it refer to
it should alays have an antecedent, which is not present. Also it is a relative pronoun and cannot be used here
D) Same problem as that of (B)
E) actually is an adverb. This has nothing that is modified by Designed to encourage debate
