Solution

The correct options are
A Media officials
B The people from the nearby villages
D The people of the village
In a democratic setup, the government is accountable to the people. Here, people’s opinions matter. There is a lot of deliberation and debate before decisions are taken. Governments have to be responsive to people’s concerns. Decisions are taken with public opinion in mind. Lots of procedures are followed before coming to any conclusion. The residents of the village and the nearby villages can put forth their opinions for the government to consider. The media can use a medium for them to voice their thoughts about the dam. Foreign tourists can speak about the dam, but their opinion would not hold much value over the opinions of the residents of the village.
