Solution

The correct option is B hand
The subjunctive mood is used in subordinate clauses and refers to unreal or improbable present or future situations.
The present subjunctive is used to express, urgency, importance, desirability, demand, order, suggestion or request. The Present Subjunctive does not indicate the time of action and remains in the same form irrespective of the tense in the main clause.
Thus, according to the rules, the correct answer will be Option C. The other remaining options are incorrect.
