Explanation:

required to find a segment which when put in the blank will render the first part of the sentence incorrect. So we can either look for the segment which will make a contextual error or one which causes a grammatical error in the asked part. So let's first read the sentence and the options thoroughly. The first statement mentions that protests were started after the Sterlite announcement was made. But the first option mentions the word “before” to indicate the time of the initiation of the protests, which renders the first part of the sentence contextually incorrect. All the other options fit appropriately in the blank and help in rendering a logical meaning to the whole sentence.

Thus, option 1 is the correct answer.
