  4. installed

Correct answer and explanation

Correct answer: instil

Explanation: ✅ Correct Answer: A) instil 📚 Explanation: The base verb 'instil' means to gradually but firmly establish an idea, attitude, or feeling in a person's mind. The sentence describes how the literary work 'Khongjom Parva' firmly roots a sense of patriotism in the people. Since it follows the helper 'continues to', it must be written in its root infinitive form. Grammatical rules prevent using plural or past variations like 'installs' or 'installed' after 'to'.
