Please Draw the major product for the reaction 

The image shows a chemical reaction involving an aromatic compound. The compound is a benzene ring with two substituents: a nitro group (NO₂) and a methoxy group (OMe), with a methyl group (CH₃) directly attached to the benzene ring.

Above the reaction arrow, the conditions are specified as "fuming H₂SO₄" (sulfuric acid). This information suggests that the reaction involves a process likely related to sulfonation or a similar electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction.

No further graphs or diagrams are present in the image.
