Now, let’s examine the given options to go looking out the correct preposition:
In - after we fill the blank with the preposition ‘in’, it makes no grammatical sense. it'll be considered wrong as ‘endowed in’ isn't an accurate phrase. So, option ‘1’ is wrong.
By - After we fill the blank with the preposition ‘by’, it changes the meaning. The sentence's meaning changes to Satish receiving a gift. However, if the blank were filled, the statement would be grammatically valid. Option "2" is incorrect since it isn't.
For -
when the preposition "for" is used to fill in the blank. Its grammar is incorrect. To be endowed for is an entirely erroneous term.
