Can any one tell me why the answer is A, but we must use 'was' as the sentence 'c' is in the past form?

'so' & 'thoroughly' can't go side by side.

As per rules, you can write "we have a discussion about the matter", but you cannot write "we discussed about the matter". Simply write we "discuss the matter".
