Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Everything in this sentence but the clause "Anushka suggested" is part of the dialogue and should therefore be enclosed with quotation marks. Option A is wrong because it includes the narration, while option D leaves out part of the dialogue. Of the remaining options, only C is correct because commas always go before the closing quotation marks.
