Due to and Owing to
Incorrect : He came late due to an accident.
Correct : He came late owing to an accident.
Incorrect : His delay was owing to the rain.
Correct . His delay was due to the rain.
Note: Due to should not be used as a preposition meaning "because of’ or 'owing to’. Due is an adjective and should be used only after a noun and a “to be" verb. However, many speakers now use it after other verbs in the same way as ‘owing to’.
