  1. Saleem said, he did not eat mangoes
  2. Saleem said that he did not eat mangoes
  3. Saleem said that he does not eat mangoes

Explanation

 Saleem said that he did not eat mangoes.

When converting direct speech to indirect speech:
  • The present tense verb "do not eat" changes to past tense → "did not eat."
  • The quotation marks are removed.
  • The conjunction "that" is used.

So, "I do not eat mangoes" becomes "he did not eat mangoes" in indirect speech.
