Correct Answer: Let us bid farewell to our seniors.


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 sentence in the case of the imperative sentence is: "Let + objective form of the pronoun + base form of the verb + prepositional phrase."

Hence, the correct active form would be: "Let us bid farewell to our seniors."
