Because auxiliary verb (now) in a clause cannot be separated from the main verb (rules) they should be close next to each other.

Now is used after the verb of Before Subject.

Like,

1- I am free now.

2- Now, I am free.

So there are no differences between 'Free now' and 'now Free' if we see them as a word only, but whenever we make Sentences through it then we always use free now.

Because free is verb & Now is placed after verb Free.

Has anyone got it?

Here the mistake is "is" instead of this we should use" was". Because it was happened already.

A comma is missing in option A. It should be like this : The Indian radio, which was previously controlled by the British rulers, is free now from the narrow vested interests.

I think "now" is not required. Like.

"is free from the narrow vested interests".

We do not use "an India" So, I think the article is wrong.
