Answer 2

Answer:

The first rule for changing direct into indirect speech is: When the reporting or principal verb is in past tense, all the present tense verbs in the direct speech (given in quotes) are changed to the corresponding past tense.

In the given sentence, the principal verb, 'said' is in simple past tense. Hence, the verbs inside the quotes are changed from simple present tense into simple past tense. Hence, the verb, 'is' in direct speech is changed to 'was' in indirect speech.
