D Correct answer
Explanation

In "Gandhiji was shot dead by Godse," the complete predicate is "was shot dead by Godse." The predicate must include the helping verb (was) along with the main verb (shot) and everything following. Option B is incorrect because it omits the helping verb "was." The subject is "Gandhiji," and Godse is the object of the preposition "by."
