"Let's discuss about the issues" Not correct. You could say 'Let's have a discussion about the issues'.

The word "thoroughly" is complete in itself that there is no use of writing "so" with it.

Hi the option is A is correct. Since revert back, discussing about etc are commonly called as "Indianism" in corporates ( as i am working in that). It like repeating twice time and commonly used in indian english.

As in the example "revert back the email", here revert the email simply does the meaning. However revert and back gives most similar meanings.
