HI Sonal,
For publishing BI reports in portal you  need to Integrate BI into Portal.
Please refer to SAP Notes:
916950
937697
They are very helpful.
Procedure for publishing after integrating BI with portal:
For this you need to create Roles-Worksets-Pages---Ivews.
The name of the report which you want to  be displayed in TLN you need to make a Role for that and the tab under that name you need to create worksets for that and the content of the report you need to create an ivew for that in this way your report will be displayed in portal also you need to righht click on the workset and <add workset to Role>and similarly for ivew also keeping entry point "YES" for a role is mandatory with the main report name in TLN and and the sub tabs under below it and the content indetailed navigation.
For publishing simply create a Role --workset and an ivew .
During creation of an ivew the wizard will ask you for a Query string that Query will be given to you by your BI people you just neeed to copy that query after ? mark and paste it in and then save it hence your report  is published in portal.
This is basically the proceddure for publishing BI reports in portal. You can ask any doubts if you hae in this.

Pooja
