Answer: A
One of the major recommendations of the First Press Commission was the introduction of a price-page schedule.
The Commission, which reported in 1954, wanted newspapers to be allowed to charge only according to a schedule that links the price to the number of pages, so that big papers could not undercut small ones by selling at a loss. It also proposed a Press Council and a Registrar of Newspapers.
The Right to Information Act came in 2005, long after the Commission. Press freedom was already guaranteed under Article 19(1)(a) of the Constitution, so it was not a new recommendation, and codification of journalistic privileges was not its main proposal.
