Bepin Choudhury's Lapse of Memory

A man named Parimal Ghose claimed to know him intimately and reminded him of his trip to Ranchi in 1958. Bepin Babu had no memory of this trip.

Because the man knew intimate details about him—his wife's death, his brother's insanity, and his lack of children.

Chunilal was an old friend falling on hard times. He wanted Bepin Babu's help to find a job.

Bepin Babu had never gone to Ranchi. It was a trick played by Chunilal as a punishment/prank because Bepin Babu had refused to help him.

1. Chunilal wrote a letter. -> A letter **was written** by Chunilal.
2. Everyone asks for help. -> Help **is asked for** by everyone.

The trick was played by him. -> He played the trick.

Present (is written), Past (was written), Future (will be written).

Object of Active becomes Subject of Passive.
