Jigneshbharatiwhat the paper involves.

A noun clause begins with "what."
The clause can be used as the subject of a sentence, e.g.
What happened to you yesterday is not interesting to me.

Or as the complement (direct object), e.g.
I found out what Mary gave you on your birthday.

Or the object of a preposition, e.g.
Are you familiar with what will be on the test?
Concentrate on what you can do to help your neighbor.
