Correct Answer: Why are you demanding peace?


Solution : The correct choice is the third option .

Active voice emphasises the doer of the action, while passive voice emphasises the receiver. To convert passive to active, we make the subject perform the action and rephrase the verb.

The structure of the active voice in the case of the present continuous interrogative sentence is: " Question word + auxiliary verb + subject + present participle of the verb + object?"

Therefore, the correct active form would be: "Why are you demanding peace?"
