Hey mate here you go...
Direct Speech: the message of the speaker is conveyed or reported in his own actual words without any change.
Indirect Speech: the message of the speaker is conveyed or reported in our own words.
Example on Process of Conversion from Direct to Indirect Speech
a) Direct: Radha said, “I am very busy now.â€
b) Indirect: Radha said that she was very busy then.
1. All inverted commas or quotation marks are omitted and the sentence ends with a full stop.
2. Conjunction ‘that’ is added before the indirect statement.
3. The pronoun ‘I’ is changed to ‘she’. (The Pronoun is changed in Person)
4. The verb ‘am’ is changed to ‘was’. (Present Tense is changed to Past)
5. The adverb ‘now’ is changed to ‘then’.
Hope it helps you
Thank you.

Answer
We may quote the actual words of his speech. This is called Direct Speech.
We may report the substance or meaning of the words used by the speaker, without quoting the actual words. This is called Indirect Speech.
For Example
Direct speech:-
"Where do they live ?"
Indirect speech:-
You asked me where they lived.
Direct speech:-
"How will they get here ?"
Indirect speech:-
She asked me how they would get here.
