Leena said, "the earth is round". (Direct Speech)

Leena said that the earth is round. (Indirect Speech)

• The given statement is having a universal truth. So, no need to change the tense in the indirect form.

• No need to change the tense when the statements are having universal truths. such as "The sun rises in the east", " The sun sets in the west", The earth is round", etc.

• Universal truth statements have an accepted fact, habitual actions, and a general truth.

• We just need to remove inverted commas and add the word "that" while changing universal sentences from direct to indirect speech.
