Model Answer
The correct word is mandatory.
"It is mandatory for all to attend."
Explanation
In formal official notices, "mandatory" means "required by rules or authority." While "obligatory" is similar, "mandatory" is the standard word used in workplace/official notices. "Indispensable" means "essential/cannot do without" and refers to things or people, not attendance requirements — so it is contextually incorrect here.
