1. has deepti submitted her project
→ This is a question (asking if Deepti submitted). So we need a question mark at the end. Also, “Deepti” is a name → capitalize it.
✔ *Has Deepti submitted her project?*

2. bacons essays are full of words of wisdom
→ “Bacon’s” means belonging to Bacon → needs an apostrophe + s. Also, start with capital letter. End with period.
✔ *Bacon’s essays are full of words of wisdom.*

3. what a fine day it is
→ This is an exclamatory sentence (showing excitement/admiration). Start with capital, end with exclamation mark.
✔ *What a fine day it is!*

4. kashmir the heaven on the earth is in india
→ “Kashmir” and “India” are proper nouns → capitalize them. “The heaven on the earth” is extra info → put commas around it.
✔ *Kashmir, the heaven on the earth, is in India.*

5. hurrah india has won the cricket world cup
→ “Hurrah!” is an exclamation → use exclamation mark after it. “India” and “Cricket World Cup” are proper nouns → capitalize. End with exclamation because it’s exciting news.
✔ *Hurrah! India has won the Cricket World Cup!*

6. india got freedom on august 15 1947

✔ *India got freedom on August 15, 1947.*

7. mr narendra modi is our prime minister

8. wealth may seek us but wisdom must be sought
→ Two independent clauses joined by “but” → no comma needed before “but” here (it’s short and clear). Capitalize first word. End with period.

9. delhi chennai mumbai and kolkata are the largest cities of india.
→ List of cities → separate with commas. Add comma before “and” (Oxford comma for clarity). Capitalize city names and “India”. The original already has a period — keep it.
