The correct answer is C) Ram told me to drive carefully.
Let us analyse the options to understand how we got the answer.
A) Ram said to me drive carefully: This sentence has not been changed to indirect speech. It still has the words, ‘said to me’.
B) Ram ordered me drive carefully: This sentence has been changed to indirect speech, but is grammatically incorrect. The word ‘to’ is missing.
D) None of the above: We already have the correct answer as option C).
C) Ram told me to drive carefully: The sentence has been correctly changed to indirect speech and is also grammatically correct.
Therefore, option C) is the correct answer.
Had Option B) been grammatically correct, it would have been a more appropriate answer because of the word 'ordered'. However, 'told' is not incorrect either.
