Select the correct indirect form of the given sentence.
Karan said to us, “You should leave early for the airport so as to reach on time.”

Correct option is D

Explanation:
The reporting verb “said to” changes to “told” in indirect speech. The modal “should” remains unchanged in indirect speech.
· Direct: “You should leave early…”
· Indirect: He told us that we should leave early…
· Grammar Rule: When the reporting verb is in past tense and the reported speech contains modals like "should," they usually remain unchanged.
· Other options explained:
· (a) " would leave" is incorrect because the original used "should" not "would."
· (b) " had to leave" changes the modal unnecessarily.
· (c) " to have left" is grammatically incorrect in this context.
