Answers
1. (4) Medical operations conducted by unqualified person and that also in unsafe environment must have not been recorded or registered. Counted is not right in the context of situation. Only performed /conducted can be the right choice.
2. (2) Selected/Shortlisted is grammatically correct. Approved is not right for a person. It might have been right if the sentence would have been like - Proposal for Mr. John's appointment for the top job has been APPROVED by Board of Directors. Questioned is incorrect grammar usage.
3. (2) Use of accurate or in place contradicts the statement. Procedure can be flawed or miscalculated hence flawed so option (b) is correct option. Irrational is not necessarily flawed.
4. 2) Sacked and removed both carry the same sense. Appointed and Selected are also similar but not given in options. So correct choice is (b)
5. 2) Blanket and prior both completes the sentence meaningfully. Here blanket means inherent in the order but may not be directly or explicitly.

EXPLANATIONS
15. (3) “Astonished” and “surprised” both are same in the meaning and use of either of them does not change the intended meaning of sentence. While the use of angry or annoyed is acceptable, but both are not highly replaceable. So they make the second best choice.
16. (2) “Exemplary” and “extreme” both fit the blank space perfectly. Exemplary is like a role model or something worthy of mentioning as an example. Other words do not fit grammatically in the blank space and also not logical for the context.
17.(1) “Felicitation” means to offer congratulations or give recognition. So offer is obvious choice. Now the other word is pay which fits well with felicitations. Other word combinations given in the options are not appropriate usage.
18. (5): “To assign” means to specify and it is used for specifying a reason. So one appropriate word for the blank is ASSIGNING. From the context, it can be inferred that company does not want to disclose the reason so it can be said that another choice is disclose. Although notifying /giving also suits the blank space but no option from the given ones has such a valid combination as in option (5).
19. (3) “In proxy” and “in front” can be rejected as first one is wrong in the context and other one cannot be inserted for grammatical incorrectness. Only option which has both the appropriate choices is (3) as 'physically and 'in person' both fits well in the blank space. Other words do not make any sense.
20. (4) “intentionally” does fit with obstruction of doors but not with enter or exit. Trespass is not right for doors of metro trains. It can be used for an area or territory but not for doors. Unintentionally does not make sense even with one of enter/exit/obstruct. Only forcefully, vehemently .thrust fully fulfill grammatical, logical or contextual requirement. But then two words have to be chosen from these and option (1) is the best option.
21. (2) “Stopping of misuse of tickets” implies that the requirement to carry the ID proof is mandatory or compulsory. So it can be said that both these words are clear cut choices. Other options are out of context and seem illogical for very obvious reason.
