I think the for will come it the sentence because without for the sentence will not sound well.

Guys can you tell me the meaning of "waiting" and "awaiting". I am thinking that both are same.

I think both A and B are correct because we don't use The article before the class of person.

I think the answer should be- "The students were waiting for the arrival of the chief guest".

Awaiting means waiting for, so need not be used both awaiting and for at a time in sentence.

Yes, I can. In this sentence awaiting means waiting and (awaiting for) means already waited.

Why can't it be present continuous A) students are awaiting the arrival of chief guest?

Yes friends
Awaiting = Waiting for
If We use awaiting for then it would be a blunder
Awaiting = Waiting for
If We use awaiting for then it would be a blunder

Awaiting is right but here if we use waiting than we shall have to write waiting for.
