उत्तर

The Vernacular Press Act

Explanation:

The image shows a newspaper with its mouth tied, which represents constraints on reporting freedom. This shows Lord Lytton’s Vernacular Press Act of 1878, a restrictive regulation that limited the freedom of Indian-language newspapers. It aimed at preventing the Indian press from criticising British policy and fostering nationalistic ideals.
