Select the option that expresses the given sentence in direct speech.

Bharati told Rakesh to call her when he reached there.

“Call me when you reach there”, Bharati told Rakesh.

The correct direct form of the given sentence is:

“Call me when you reach there,” Bharati told Rakesh.

The other options are incorrect:

• "Call her when you have reached here,” Bharati told Rakesh." This is incorrect because the pronoun "her" should be "me".
• "Call him when you are reaching there”, Bharati told Rakesh." This is incorrect because Bharati is talking to Rakesh, not to him.
• "Call me when you reached there”, Bharati says to Rakesh." This is incorrect because the reporting verb "says" is in the present tense, but the reported statement is describing an action that happened in the past.
