Choose the option in which the following sentence has been correctly changed into Indirect Narration.
Sunita said, “Please help me, Ram”

Correct option is B

The correct indirect narration is (b) Sunita requested Ram to help her.
Detailed Explanation (English):
• The word “Please” shows a polite request, so “said” changes to requested.
• The sentence is an imperative/request, so in indirect speech we use: requested + object + to + V1.
• Pronoun “me” changes according to the speaker (Sunita) → her.
• Quotation marks are removed in indirect speech.
Grammatical Rule Used (English):
• Request/Imperative (Direct): “Please + V1 …”
• Indirect: Subject + requested + object + to + V1
• Pronoun change depends on the speaker and listener.
Grammatical Rule Used (Hindi):
• “Please” वाले वाक्य request दर्शाते हैं, इसलिए “said” बदलकर requested हो जाता है।
• Imperative/request को Indirect में बदलते समय संरचना होती है: requested + object + to + verb (V1)।
• “me” का परिवर्तन speaker के अनुसार होता है (Sunita → her)।
Example:
Direct: He said, “Please sit down.”
Indirect: He requested me to sit down.
Why other options are incorrect:
• (a) Meaning becomes incomplete/short and does not keep the “to-infinitive” request structure used in the paper’s pattern.
• (c) “asked” can be used, but “Please” makes requested the most appropriate reporting verb here.
• (d) Passive/should-structure changes the meaning and is not the standard request transformation.
