Here's your answer...

When the person rotates the stone, he applies centripetal force radially inwards to keep the stone in a circular path.

However, the velocity of the stone is tangential to the circular path.

Thus, the angle between the force applied and instantaneous displacement of the stone is 90°.

W = FS cos 90
= FS × 0
= 0

So the work done in rotating the stone in a horizontal circular path is 0.
