The correct answer is option 2 - Launch of 24 hours news channel—DD News. Doordarshan, the public broadcaster of India, has achieved various milestones throughout its history. Option 1, the launch of enrichment/cultural channel - DD Bharati, is a significant milestone, but it is not the latest one. DD Bharati was launched on 26 January 2002 to showcase Indian arts, culture, and heritage. Option 3, the launch of sports channel - DD Sports, is also a milestone, but it is not the latest one either. DD Sports was launched on 18 March 1998 to provide coverage of various sports events. Option 4, the formation of Prasar Bharati (Broadcasting Corporation of India), is not a milestone achieved by Doordarshan but rather the overall restructuring of the Indian broadcasting industry. The latest milestone of Doordarshan is the launch of 24 hours news channel - DD News. DD News was launched on 3 November 2003 and provides comprehensive news coverage from around the world.
