Solution

The correct option is D Mr. Verma is junior to most of us in the company but he is the most experienced of all.
The use of 'but' suggests contrasting statements so 'junior' is correct. The adjective 'junior' is followed by 'to' and not 'than'. Since we are comparing Mr. Verma to 'all' others, we must use the superlative degree of comparison. Hence, the correct answer is 'Mr. Verma is junior to most of us in the company but he is the most experienced of all.'
