Correct Answer: It is said that Shyam is wise and honest.


Solution : The first option is the correct answer.

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 voice becomes the subject in the passive voice.

The structure of the passive voice in the case of the simple present tense is: "Singular object + is + past participle of the main verb + subordinate clause.

Therefore, the correct answer is: It is said that Shyam is wise and honest.
