When we change an active voice into passive voice, we usually follow this structure:-

• object + auxiliary verb (according to the tense of the given sentence) + past participle form of main verb + by + subject

Here, Sunil was writing a poem is in Past Continuous tense, for this, we used "was being" as the auxiliary verb.

But note that, if the object is plural, then we have to use "were being" as the auxiliary verb.

❖Some examples:-

• Active Voice: He was doing his homework.(Subject) + (verb) + (object).

Passive Voice: His homework was being done by him. (Object) + (auxiliary verb) + (past participle) + (by) +(subject).

• They are completing their duties.

Passive :- Their duties were being completed by them.

• She was writing the letter.

Passive:- The letter was being written by her.
