Correct Answer: a)
Explanation:
When converting indirect speech containing past perfect (‘had been’, ‘had conclusively established’) back to direct speech, it reverts to present perfect (‘has been’, ‘have conclusively established’). Thus option (a) is correct.
अप्रत्यक्ष कथन (Indirect Speech) में Past Perfect (‘had been’, ‘had established’) का प्रयोग हुआ है, जो प्रत्यक्ष कथन (Direct Speech) में Present Perfect (‘has been’, ‘have established’) में परिवर्तित होता है।
