Answer: Option C
Solution(By Examveda Team)
In direct and indirect speech, when we report someone's request, we often use the verb "requested" followed by an indirect request. The structure of indirect speech for requests is typically: "requested + [indirect request]."In this case, the original sentence is a polite request: "Could you please repeat the question?"
The correct indirect speech transformation is: "He requested the interviewer to repeat the question."
Therefore, the correct answer is Option C: He requested the interviewer to repeat the question. This option accurately conveys the original request in indirect speech without unnecessary additions or alterations.

I think option D would be the right because the thing is that the direct form of speech is in s or no
Form , as it is we must use a transitive interjunction if / whether
I understand the answer but you should always describe the reason with the answer you provide.
