Solution

The correct option is A evolve
Option A: 'Evolve' means 'to develop gradually'.
Here, the "Prime Minister held discussions today with four other leaders to develop a consensus (general agreement)". Hence this word forms a complete meaningful sentence and option A is correct.
Option B: 'To win' is 'to be successful or victorious in something'.
Option C: 'Capture' means 'to take into possession or control by force'.
Option D: 'Emerge' means 'become visible or known'.
Hence options B, C and D are incorrect.
