In reported speech, the statement would be changed to reflect the fact that the original speaker (he) is reporting what was said to someone else (me). To convert the given direct speech to reported speech, we need to follow some rules:

Remove the quotation marks and capitalize the first word of the reported sentence.

Replace the question mark with a period (full stop) since the reported sentence is not a question.

Use the reporting verb "asked" or "inquired" as appropriate.

Change the pronouns and verb tenses as necessary to reflect the change in perspective.

Applying these rules, the given direct speech can be converted to reported speech as follows:

He asked me if he should help me (or) He inquired if he could help me, addressing me as Radha.
