    Select the option that expresses the following sentence in passive voice. After we come to power at the Centre, we will conduct a countrywide caste
    Question

    Select the option that expresses the following sentence in passive voice.
    After we come to power at the Centre, we will conduct a countrywide caste census.

    A.

    A countrywide caste census will have been conducted by us after we come to power at the Centre.

    B.

    A countrywide caste census will be conducted by us as and when we come to power at the Centre.

    C.

    A countrywide caste census will be conducted by us after we come to power at the Centre.

    D.

    A countrywide caste census should be conducted by us when we come to power at the Centre.

    Correct option is C

    The correct passive voice transformation is option (c).
    Active Voice Sentence:
    "After we come to power at the Centre, we will conduct a countrywide caste census."
    Structure Analysis:
    · Tense: Future simple tense ("will conduct")
    · Subject: "We"
    · Object: "a countrywide caste census"
    · Time clause: "After we come to power at the Centre"
    Passive Voice Rule for Future Simple Tense:
    will/shall + be + past participle (V3) of the verb.
    Here, the verb is "conduct" → past participle = "conducted"
    Passive Construction:
    The object of the active sentence becomes the subject in the passive sentence.
    So:
    "A countrywide caste census will be conducted by us after we come to power at the Centre."
    Why other options are incorrect:
    · (a) "will have been conducted" – This is future perfect tense, not future simple.
    · (b) "as and when we come to power" – Not the same expression of time as "after"; slightly changes the meaning.
    · (d) "should be conducted" – "Should" changes the intent; it's no longer a definitive action but a suggestion.
    Correct Answer: (c)
    Passive voice with correct tense, subject, object, and time clause preserved.
