Hi,

Here are grammar edits.

Sudha: Could I speak to Meena?

You: I’m sorry, she is not at home. I am her brother. Could you tell me your name?

Sudha: I’m Sudha, her classmate. Can you pass on a message to your sister?

You: Definitely. Please tell me what it is.

Sudha: Please tell her that she needs to tell Madam Devi the progress she has made in her project before 5 this

evening. And also ask her to call me after she speaks to Madam Devi.

You: I will pass on this message to her as soon as she returns.

Sudha: Thank you.

Here is a more natural (in Canada) version.

Sudha: Could I speak to Meena, please?

You: I’m sorry, she's not home. I'm her brother. Who's calling, please?

Sudha: This is Sudha. I'm in her class. Can you give her a message, please?

You: OK.

Sudha: Please tell her that she needs to call tell Ms Devi about the progress she's made ono her project before 5 this

evening. And also ask her to call me after she speaks to Ms Devi, please.

You: OK.

Sudha: Thank you.
