Solution

Electromagnetism is a process in which when a piece of iron is kept in an electric field then after some time it will show magnetism.
Magnetism will be lost as soon as the electric current is turned off.
So, the magnet made by this process will be a temporary magnet.
Hence, the correct statement is when current flows around a soft iron, it changes into a temporary magnet.
