Select the most appropriate indirect form of the given sentence. Rani said, “We are organizing a cleaning programme in the colony tomorrow.”
Rani said that they were organizing a cleaning programme in the colony the next day.
For an assertive sentence reported with "said" (no object), keep said that; shift Present Continuous "are organizing" to Past Continuous were organizing; change pronoun "we" to they (Rani's group, not the reporter's); and convert tomorrow to the next day. Applying all four changes gives: Rani said that they were organizing a cleaning programme in the colony the next day.
