Correct Answer: C সঠিক উত্তর: C

Explanation ব্যাখ্যা

Here's a breakdown of the errors in the other options:

Rahul is leaving for office a few minutes before the guests had arrived.
This is incorrect because it uses the past perfect tense ("had arrived") for an event that happened before the past simple tense ("is leaving"). The correct tense combination would be past simple followed by past simple.

Rahul left for office a few minutes before the guests arrive.
This is incorrect because it uses the present simple tense ("arrive") to refer to an event that happened in the past. The correct tense is past simple.

Rahul has left for office a few minutes before the guests arrived.
This is incorrect because the present perfect tense ("has left") suggests that the action of leaving is still relevant or ongoing in the present, which doesn't make sense in this context.
