Answer» The third paragraph of the passage DISCUSSES how the issue emerged after the Mumbai attacks. It was proposed by the then UPA government that the live coverage of the attack by different media channels gave vital information to terrorists which helped them in modifying their strategies accordingly. However, it must be noted that not only NDTV but also various other channels were also responsible for live coverage of the attack. Hence, NDTV alone cannot be cursed for the same. Mumbai attack was indeed one of the HEINOUS attacks ever made, but it must be noted that the government never declared the state of national emergency during the attack. The live coverage of the attacks forced the government to take some step and INITIATED the formation of laws that gave government officials arbitrary POWERS to cancel the coverage ANYTIME, which was opposed. Hence, option 2 is correct. |
