Explanation

For changing imperative sentences into Passive voice, auxiliary verb “be” is used. The word “let” is added before the sentence in Passive voice. Auxiliary verb “be” is added after the object in the sentence in Passive voice. Main verb (base form) of the imperative sentence is changed to 3rd form of verb (past participle) in Passive voice. Thus, the correct answer is, ‘Let the truth be spoken'.
