The India Languages Newspaper Revolution
The most significant happening in the few decades has been the India language newspaper revolution. The beginnings of this growth predated liberalization. The top two dailies in India are Danik Jagaran and Danik Bhaskar with a readership of 21 million and 17 million, respective. The fastest growing dialies are the Assamese dailies in urban areas (51.8 percent increase) and the Bengali dailies in rural areas (129 percent).
The 'Eenadu' story also exemplifies the success of the Indian language press. Ramoji Rao the founder of 'Eenadu' has successfully organised a chit-fund, before launching the paper in 1974. By associating with appropriate causes in the rural areas like the Anti-arak movement in the mid-1980s, the Telugu newspaper was able to reach into the countryside. This prompted it to launch 'district dailies' in 1989. There were tabloid inserts of sensational features carrying news from particulars districts as well as classified advertisements from villages and small towns of the same. By 1998 'Eenadu' was being published from ten towns in Andhra Pradesh and its circulation accounted for 70 percent of the audited Telugu daily circulation.
