Verbal | Re: quot; The rapid development of India in the twenty-first

" The rapid development of India in the twenty-first century is like England in the eighteenth century."

I understand that there is an illogical comparison . India'sdevelopment is not likeEngland . However the correct solution includes "that of England" to imply England's development i.e " The rapid development of India in the twenty-first century is likethat of England in the eighteenth century."

Doubt: This, that these and those cannot replace nouns,
