Model Answer
The correct option is B: that all the students would get.
Explanation
In reported speech, 'will' changes to 'would'. Sharwari's direct statement used 'will get', so in indirect speech it becomes 'would get'. Options A (should) and C (ought to) change the meaning, and D (must be getting) is grammatically incorrect here.
