Q. While some propose to combat widespread illegal copying of computer programs by attempting to change people’s attitudes toward pirating, others by suggesting reducing software prices to decrease the incentive for pirating, and still others by calling for the prosecution of those who copy software illegally.
(A) by suggesting reducing software prices to decrease the incentive for pirating, and still others by calling
(B) by suggesting the reduction of software prices to decrease the incentive for pirating, and still others call
(C) suggest the reduction of software prices for decreasing the incentive for pirating, and still others call
(D) suggest the reduction of software prices to decrease the incentive for pirating, and still others by calling
(E) suggest reducing software prices to decrease the incentive for pirating, and still others are calling

OA is [spoiler](E)[/spoiler]. For me [spoiler](C)[/spoiler] seems to be parallel not [spoiler](E)[/spoiler].
Kindly explain.

Thanks,
Rohit.

E is parallel. Make sure you know what needs to be parallel.

others suggest reducing and still others are calling

I've stuck up between C and E and chose C, as others

I'm not sure, but key words for parallel maybe:

While some propose to combat widespread illegal copying of computer programs by attempting to change people’s attitudes toward pirating, others.......

...(E)suggest [to combat.....by]reducing software prices to decrease the incentive for pirating, and still others are calling

what attract me in C is that "others call"- parallel with propose and suggest, instead of "others are calling" in E.

May we have some professional's comment on this ?
we are the champions !

The reason why C is not correct:
"the reduction of software prices for decreasing" is not correct. It should be "to decrease".

E is correct because it maintains parallelism reducing software prices to decrease the incentive for pirating, and still others are calling for the prosecution
