Grammatical Analysis & Inverted Question Transformation:

Given Direct Speech: *'Kamala said to Akshay, "Are you not ashamed of yourself ?"*'

Rules for Conversion:

1. Reporting Verb: *Said to* becomes asked.
2. Connector: The interrogative begins with auxiliary *Are*, requiring if or whether.
3. Pronoun Agreement:
• Addressee is *Akshay* (masculine singular), so *you* becomes he.
• Reflexive pronoun *yourself* becomes himself.
4. Tense Backshift:
• Simple Present negative *are not* shifts to Simple Past negative was not.
5. Reverting to assertive word order:

*"Kamala asked Akshay if he was not ashamed of himself."* (Option 3).

6. Elimination of distractors:
• Option 1 (*is not*): Un-backshifted present tense.
• Option 2 (*you are not*): Pronoun and tense unaltered.
• Option 4 (*she is not... herself*): Incorrect feminine pronouns for Akshay.
