Statement II:In SWAYAM PRABHA, every day there is new content for at least 5 hours repeated four more times a day.
ABoth Statement I and Statement II are true
BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
CStatement I is true but Statement II is false ✓ Correct
DStatement I is false but Statement II is true
Correct answer: (C) Statement I is true but Statement II is false
Explanation

The uplink from BISAG-N in Gandhinagar is correct, but the stated daily content pattern is not, making only the first statement true.

Statement 1 is true because SWAYAM PRABHA channels are indeed uplinked from BISAG-N at Gandhinagar.

The uplinked signal is then carried by satellite to reach DTH receivers across the country.

Statement 2 is false because the scheme carries roughly four hours of new content daily rather than five.

That new content is then repeated five more times through the day, not four, so the figures given are wrong.

The repetition model suits viewers who cannot watch a programme at its first broadcast.
