Correct Answer: A scholarship was conferred to Kailash by the department.
Solution : The third option is the correct choice.
Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who performs the action. Hence, the object in the active sentence becomes the subject in the passive voice.
The structure of the passive voice in the case of the simple past tense is: "Singular object + was + past participle of the verb + prepositional phrase + by followed by the agent of the action."
Therefore, the correct answer is: "A scholarship was conferred to Kailash by the department."
