option C and Option E both refers to same answer. I have selected Third answer which refers to "C".

Question:
DIRECTIONS: Read the following passage carefully and answer the given set of questions.


India is a great book producing nation and has a vibrant world of book publishing spread throughout the vast country in a number of modern languages most of which have their roots in Sanskrit, the mother of Indian languages. Today Indian publishing is one of the greatest in the world and can be counted among the first seven publishing nations. In India, every year a world level Book fair is held in New Delhi, which is India’s oldest book fair. Delhi Book Fair is playing a pivotal role in reiterating the might of the pen and the printed word and has come to be recognized as the biggest annual cultural event and book bonanza keenly awaited by students, teachers, scholars, authors, intellectuals, librarians and book lovers. This biennial event takes place in early February, and is organized by the National Book Trust, India (NBT). Delhi Book Fair has evolved over the years as a highly popular conduit to the world of books and publishers and distributors Publishers have also introduced “e-Books” in this fair. The focus is being given especially keeping in mind the increasing number of IT-savvy younger generation with a penchant for internet, mobile phones and other reader-friendly digital gizmos.


E-books and e-publishing both has their obvious advantages though authors in India have only just begun to realize the immense benefits digital technology can be of in this field. Also, with the country being the third biggest publisher — after the US and UK — the potential in this field is immense and the response too has been quite encouraging so far with a lot of publishers already showing interest in e-publishing. E-publishing is a boon for both established and wannabe writers as it is cost effective and cuts down the time it take for a book to reach markets to about a fourth of what it would have taken had it been left to publishers to do the job. Other benefits include authors now have a worldwide audience to their book which means better business while debugging or carrying out revisions too is a lot less hazardous. Another interesting development to have occurred in recent times is the launch of Amazon e-book store in the country as well as the availability of the Kindle range of e-book readers. Needless to say, a direct fallout of the renewed push that e-book are getting is increased sale of eBook readers and tablet devices.
