Correct Answer: witnessed


Solution : The first option is the correct answer.

The most appropriate word to convey this sense is witnessed, as it means to see or experience an event, and, in this context, it implies that the East Room has been the setting for such events.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Surpassed means exceeded or went beyond.
  • Rebuffed means rejected or snubbed.
  • Grounded means resting on or being firmly established.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: "More than 200 eminent Indian Americans attended the reception at the East Room, a venue which has witnessed some of the landmark events related to the India-U.S. relationship."
