Answer

Work done by the tension due to string, $W_{T}=0$

Work Step by Step

Since tension force always acts along the string i.e. along radial direction and displacement of the block is always in tangential direction (because length of the string remains constant), so no work is done by the tension force as force is always perpendicular to the displacement.
