c. 3

ANSWER: 3
Replace 'his' with 'their'.
When two singular nouns are joined by 'and' refer two different persons the pronoun used for them should be 'plural'.
The correct sentence should be: The Party Chief and the Chief Minister expressed their views on demonetization in India.
Example: Ashwin and Hardik are brothers. They play cricket.
