She said, "We visited Uttarakhand in the summer vacation."
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct indirect narration of the given sentence is:
She said that they had visited Uttarakhand in the summer vacation.
The other options are incorrect:
- She said that we visited Uttarakhand in the summer vacation. - This is incorrect because the pronoun "we" in the reported speech refers to the speaker and the people they are reporting about, but the speaker is reporting what someone else said.
- She said that they will visit to Uttarakhand in the summer vacation. - This is incorrect because the verb "will visit" in the reported speech is in the future tense, but the reporting verb "said" is in the past tense.
- She said that they have visited Uttarakhand in the summer vacation. - This is incorrect because the verb "have visited" in the reported speech is in the present perfect tense, but the reporting verb "said" is in the past tense.
