Answer 2

He said that man is mortal.

In the provided question we are provided a statement that is in direct speech. We are expected to change it to indirect speech. While doing so there are a few things to be kept in mind. They are as follows-

• There should be complete removal of all quotations.
• The message should be in the past tense or other forms of the past tense.
• However, in this case, a universal truth has been stated that cannot be alerted. Thus, the tense should remain simple present tense.
• The meaning should be unchanged.
