Explanation :

Indirect speech or reported speech mainly refers to a dialogue being said to a third person or in reporting what happened to the third person.

⇒ If the sentence is a question, then 'said' is changed to asked.

⇒ The punctuation marks except a full stop (.) can't be used in a indirect speech.
