As people have said, the first one is the only correct one.
You are saying, "Do + noun clause.
"What is right" is a noun clause. In this case, the noun clause is acting as an object of the main verb, do.
Most noun clauses of this type are made up of:
Question word + subject + verb (+ )(adjective or other things)
(Note that the subject of the sentence and the subject of the noun clause are different.)
For instance:
I know where he lives. ("where he lives" is a noun clause)
She knows when George wakes up. ("when George wakes up" is a noun clause)
When you use "what," "who," and sometimes "which," the question word and the subject are sometimes the same word. That's what happened in your sentence. In your other choices, you have two subjects in your noun clause, which isn't possible. Hope this helps.

"Do what is right" is the correct sentence out of your three.
All three use the same key words, but with the wrong word or pronoun could change the whole meaning.
Sentence 1 is right. Hope that helps!

the first one is correct but the other two are gramatically wrong.
as a general rule, any sentence that sounds weird is usually wrong.

No, you are wrong. Only the first sentence is correct. Other two are grammatically wrong.
