I think it is also possible to say this way:
"what you ought to do is to call the police".
The second sentence of yours sounds weird.
Maybe you can change a bit for the first sentence:
"what you ought to have done is to call the police".
which of the follwing is correct :
what you ought to have done is called police
or
what you ought to have done is calling police .
if the two are possible , what is the difference in meaning?
always thanks in advance.![]()

This one is right as long as you add the the -
What you ought to have done is called the police.
I would like to know if my above sentence is wrong."what you ought to have done is to call the police".
Thanks.
