Answer 2

Answer:

‘Shivaji asked to John that what brought him to Raigarh’ is an indirect speech of the given sentence.

Explanation:

Two types of speeches are there namely indirect and direct speeches. Indirect speech is the kind of reported speech or an indirect narration. In this, we have to report the passage like an incidence to the third person.  

In simple words, the words should be quoted without using his/her own word and provided the same meaning in the form of report. From the provided sentence, a question has been asked, so we added ‘Shivaji asked to John’ and the quotes are removed and provided a report like format.
