Explanation:

When converting direct speech to indirect speech (assertive sentences):

  1. Remove the quotation marks and introduce a conjunction like that after the reporting verb (said, told).

  2. Change the pronouns according to the subject and object.

  3. Adjust the tense if the reporting verb is in the past:

    • Modal verbs like must generally change to had to in the past tense, unless expressing eternal truths.

Example:

  • Direct: Kalim said, "I must go there."

  • Indirect: Kalim said that he had to go there.

Other options are wrong because:

  • ক) “I” is not changed to “he” → incorrect pronoun

  • খ) “must” is unchanged → past context usually requires had to

  • ঘ) “must had to” → grammatically incorrect; two modal verbs cannot be used together
