Though we have kept in mind to try and maintain most facilities, we would like to request you to kindly bear with us over any inconvenience that may be caused.

  • A.would keep in mind to try and to maintain
  • B.have kept in mind trying and maintain
  • C.should have kept in mind to try and to maintain
  • D.No correction required

Answer: D

Correct answer: No correction required

The clause is already well formed. Have kept is a present perfect describing an effort that began earlier and still holds, and to try and maintain is a standard idiomatic pairing in which and links two bare infinitives after to.

The alternatives each damage it: would keep shifts a settled fact into the conditional, have kept in mind trying and maintain mismatches a gerund with a bare infinitive, and should have kept turns the sentence into a reproach the writer plainly does not intend.
