Answer 2

‘Shweta informed us that she was going to Pune by bus’ is an indirect speech of the given sentence.

Explanation:

• The direct mode of narration narrates the exact words spoken by the speaker which is given in double inverted commas.  

• When we convert the same sentence into indirect speech we do away with the inverted commas and report the narration. Depending on the tense of the reporting verb the tense of the narration changes.

• In the given sentence, Shweta said, "She is going to Pune by bus", the reporting verb ‘said’ is in the past tense, hence in the indirect speech the sentence changes to, ‘Shweta informed us that she was going to Pune by bus’.
