  • C.The teacher wished congratulations and success in life to Mahesh
  • D.The teacher congratulated Mahesh and wished him success in life

Answer: D

Correct answer: The teacher congratulated Mahesh and wished him success in life

Two separate speech acts are reported with the verbs proper to each: congratulated for the congratulation and wished for the good wish. The options keeping wish you success or said congratulations leave a piece of direct speech unconverted.
