The nitration of aniline in a strong acidic medium results in the formation of m-nitroaniline because:

1. In spite of substituents, the nitro group always goes to only the m-position.
2. In electrophilic substitution reactions, the amino group is meta-directive.
3. In the absence of substituents, the nitro group always goes to only m-position.
4. In an acidic (strong) medium, aniline is present as an anilinium ion.
