An active voice is when the subject acts upon the verb while in a passive voice, the subject receives the action of the verb. Moreover, the verbs in the active and passive voices will change according to the form of the sentence.
The subject will be placed at the end of the sentence while the object will come in the place of the object (i.e. exchange of position/location). Also, the subject will be introduced by the word "by" in the passive voice.
The given sentence "the government is planning a new road near my house" can be 'dissected' as below-
<em>the government= the subject</em>
<em>is planning= present continuous</em>
<em>a new road= object</em>
Thus, the new sentence in the passive voice becomes-
A new road is being planned near my house by the government.
