A sentence is provided in direct speech. From the four given options, choose the one that most accurately conveys the sentence in its corresponding indirect speech.
He asked me, “Have you done your homework?”

Correct option is A

The correct indirect speech is (a) He asked me if I had done my homework.
Rules of conversion (in detail):
· Reporting verb “asked” + if/whether for yes–no questions.
· Backshift of tense: Present Perfect ( have done) → Past Perfect (had done) when the reporting verb is in the past (asked).
· Question order → statement order: Subject + verb (no inversion), and the question mark becomes a full stop.
· Pronoun change: you → I (according to the object me).
· Example: She asked him, “Have you finished?” → She asked him if he had finished.
· Why other options are incorrect:
· (b) Keeps interrogative inversion have I after asked me—ungrammatical. (Hindi: anuchit śabd-krama)
· (c) Tense not backshifted (have done)—violates sequence of tenses. (Hindi: kāl anukrama trutī)
· (d) Inversion had I persists in indirect form—incorrect.
