Choose the grammatically INCORRECT sentence:
Answer: D
The incorrect sentence is This country's expenditure on educational reforms is very less.
'Less' is a comparative and needs something to be compared with, as in 'less than last year'. It cannot be intensified by 'very'. The sentence should read 'is very low' or 'is very little'.
The others are correct. In the first, 'less' is used as a preposition meaning minus. In the second, 'not less than that of Bangladesh' is a proper comparison. In the third, 'a lesser sum' uses 'lesser', the adjective meaning smaller, correctly before a noun.
