"Exist' means to be or to be present in reality . If something exists, it is present in the world as a real
thing. Now the passage begins with the line, Bhutan’s announcement that it is unable to ___1__ (exist) with the Motor Vehicles Agreement with Bangladesh, India and Nepal,...the given option exist does
not fit it . The other options speed and expedite also are not apt. 'Proceed' means to go further or
move further. This is the only one that makes the context meaningful.
With the help of elimination technique wherein each option can be read along with the sentence and
then wrong to be discarded and meaningful to inserted will be quite helpful
