• A. Went there the previous day.
• B. Was there the previous day.
• C. Had gone there the previous day.
• D. Has gone there the previous day.

Answer 1

The correct option is C Had gone there the previous day.

The passage tells us that Sumit went to the Book Fair yesterday. The event i.e Sumit going to the fair is over in the past which makes it a past perfect tense sentence. So, the correct answer is option C) had gone there the previous day. 'Was' is used in past continuous tense sentences.
