Options

A. due to labour strike
B. the production was held up
C. in case that
D. We had to decline

Answer

C

Explanation

The error is due to the fragment ‘in case that’. It is a preposition and used in sentences like please do not use lift in case of fire. In the given sentence, it is a connecting a fragment which gives reason why the speaker had to decline the orders. It should be replaced by the conjunction "because" to provide correct meaning to the sentence.
