Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B - QPRS
QPRS gives: 'India and Pakistan have suffered acutely due to Pakistan's expansionist policy in Kashmir, but after a year and a half of violent conflict, it is clear that Pakistan's strategy has not succeeded.' The other orders put 'it is clear' or 'of violent conflict' in an ungrammatical place.
