I don't think so.

Thank you sir !!

My doubt is:

All the sentences in the second batch are correct as you have identified.  Note that it is  better to start a new thread than to "piggyback" on one that has already been answered.

kanakaraju"Is designated To" : is the correct usage?Or should it be like " Is designated for"?

To is correct, although the sentence is a little awkward. For will not work here.

AlpheccaStars · Answer

kanakaraju"Is designated To" : is the correct usage?

The word "to" is the particle for the infinitive (monitor) that follows. As part of an infinitive, "to" is fixed. There is no other option.

According to the presentation, the Bureau is designated (to monitor) dangerous items in society.

If you want to use "for," then you have to use a gerund form, not the infinitive form.

According to the presentation, the Bureau is designated for monitoring dangerous items in society.
