Answer :
b. Metaphor is the figure of speech used in the given sentence 'Keshav heard a bad news. The news was dagger to his heart.'
This is because 'the news' has been compared to 'a dagger' without the use of words like 'like' and 'as.'
Cambridge English Dictionary defines 'metaphor' as 'an expression, often found in literature, that describes a person or object by referring to something that is considered to have similar characteristics to that person or object.'
