If one leg of the parallel circuit shorts all of the current available will flow out of the power supply for a brief time and then sense an overload and shut down (blow the fuse).

In a short circuit, maximax current flow takes place.
Similarly, here R4 is shorted so maximum current is flowing through it.
And the current find a low resistance part to flow.

According to Gajjar Akash, how can current increase with resistance? and also all are resistors as the unit is ohm and as per the symbol, then where the G comes from?

When R4 will short circuited then total circuit will be series circuit and current will be the same in the whole circuit. R1 R2, R3 will not conduct current.

@Meghavi.
If R4 is Shorted then there would be no resistor in the circuit. Then how will the current flow and moreover how will you apply Ohms law V=IR.

Just simply remember if R1>R2 in parallel circuit of resistance in this case current flow through R1 is less and R2 is more current.

I hope G is a Galvanometer here.
A galvanometer is a type of ammeter: an instrument for detecting and measuring electric current.

@Cee.
Explains that current is highest in R4 but it is a obvious thing that current should be low in I4 because R4 = 12/R4.

1st convert G into R and 0.02A pass through R1 and current increases as resistance, so high current pass through R4.

Short circuit means lower the resistance. So R1 has the lower resistance so R1 should be the answer.
