This question was previously asked in
PYST : General Awareness - SSC Stenographer 2024 (Tier-I) (10-Dec-2024) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is

Let not Hari's insulting words be minded.

The given sentence is "Do not mind Hari's insulting words." This is an imperative sentence, expressing a command or request. To convert it to the passive voice, we need to focus on the object of the sentence ("Hari's insulting words") and make it the subject. The action "mind" becomes "be minded," which implies a passive state of being attended to. The negative "do not" translates to "let not".

Let's analyze the options:

  • Option 1: Let Hari's insulted words be minded. This changes the meaning. The original sentence is about ignoring the words; this option suggests paying attention to them.
  • Option 2: Let not Hari's insulting words be minded. This correctly transforms the sentence into the passive voice. The object ("Hari's insulting words") becomes the subject, and the negative imperative is preserved.
  • Option 3: Let’s don’t mind Hari’s insulting words. This is grammatically incorrect and doesn't represent a passive voice construction.
  • Option 4: Let Hari not mind the insulting words. This is still an active voice sentence; Hari remains the subject performing the action.

Therefore, the only option that correctly expresses the given sentence in the passive voice while retaining the original meaning is Option 2: Let not Hari's insulting words be minded.
