Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Censorship was not a top priority for the colonial state of the East India Company before 1798. However, its early attempts to impose restrictions on printed publications were directed toward Englishmen in India who disapproved of Company mismanagement and detested particular Company officers' actions. The 1857 rebellion changed how people saw press freedom. The "local" press was urged to be crushed by furious Englishmen. Local media started to take a strong nationalist attitude, and the colonial authorities began to consider tight control measures.
