Correct Answer: My book was stolen by Suresh.


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 passive voice sentence follows the structure: Singular object + past participle form of the verb + by followed by the agent of the action.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: My book was stolen by Suresh.
