'Syntax Error : Unexpected Token Catch While Compiling EJS

I am working on a project in Node.JS Express. I had several pages all of which are running fine but only one page (till now) is giving error in loading up. When I ran that page a error pops up, that is :

SyntaxError: Unexpected token catch in E:\nodeapp\views\adm.ejs while compiling ejs

If the above error is not helpful, you may want to try EJS-Lint:

Or, if you meant to create an async function, pass async: true as an option.

My adm.ejs file is :

                </div>

            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
    </body>

    </html>

I tried searching on the internet regarding this error but everyone showed that there is a problem in the include syntax which is correct for me. Also my router file for this page has nothing else other than a get request which renders this page to the client.

Where's the problem then ?

Thanks

Solution 1:^[1]

You forgot to close the for, }. it looks like <% } %>

Solution 2:^[2]

<% for(var i=0 ; i < candidates.length; i++) { %> seems your '{' wasn't closed with '}' and should be '<%}%>'
