उत्तर
- The stories in these two newspapers are not similar in totality.
- The stories are not similar because neither of the two newspapers has given a balanced news report. It means they are not as independent as the media should be for giving a balanced news report for the success of democracy.
- Similarities: Similarities in my view are that both the newspapers have reported on the same topic i.e., ‘closure of factories. In both the newspapers, the protest by the factories’ owners and workers is highlighted.
- Differences: The news report in the ‘News of India’ has pointed out that protestors were disrupting traffic and polluting the city continuously. But, the story in the India Daily’ has related the protest to the livelihoods of the workers and factory owners because of the closure of the factories.
