C Correct answer
Explanation

Third option is correct. The tense of the sentence changes into 'past' tense because the reporting verb in direct voice (said) is in past tense. As the reporting speech is in interrogative, the word 'said' changes to 'enquired'. 'today' changes to 'that day'. Word 'whether' is introduced in the sentence.
