Choose the most appropriate option which best expresses the same sentence in Indirect/Direct speech.

He said, "Sita, when is the next train ?"

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

For an interrogative in direct speech, the reporting verb becomes asked in indirect form. The question word when is retained, the subject-verb order changes to statement order, and the present tense is becomes past was due to backshift. This gives He asked Sita when the next train was, which is option 2.
