News paper in India

India is a country having the largest news network in this world. A big democratic country with people having so many democratic thoughts. Every Indian gets time to go through the morning news. The main concern is that why he goes through the news paper? The answer may be because most of the government jobs need general social knowledge, to know about the yesterday's play results, to know about the latest gossips and hot pics of models and actors, to know the business graphs, and a great time pass for the people to spend while having a hot morning coffee or in a nice boring journey. Most of the people stick to the last one as India is a land with more middle class families, they will not have time to go through all other stuff, they surf through the whole news paper while having coffee. The above things discussed is for men, coming to women, 95% of Indian educated women will not get time to think about the news paper. All they can know about the society is through the regular husk meetings with fellow beings. In case if they have to go through the news paper, all they stick to is with "strictly for women" page filled with all women stuff, published by almost every local daily news paper in our country. Well, whatever  it may be, news paper entertains everybody, every kind of people. It gives us good information which mostly entertains us, actually, we only go through entertaining stuff. Sometimes people accidentally go through the political and social issues side of the news paper, bingo, they have got some stuff to discuss with friends and let them show that he has more political thoughts and not to discuss about deaths and accidents.
Before India has got independence, news paper has been started in India by some great people, who wanted to make the people know about the things happening around the country to make the people act in a wise way according to the change of situations for the benefit of the country and also of an individual and not to mention the political and healthy lifestyle of the people had been a great improvement since the start of 19 century to the later few decades.
Starting after the independence of India, number of political parties emerged across the country, leaded by revolutionary and educated people with great sense of wisdom and patriotism, trying to unite the country under common knowledge and justice. The people who gained the knowledge of social and economic conditions of the country became the leaders followed by patriots of the nation. In the early 1970's, the patriotism of the political parties are dominated by the greed of power and money when India had been in crisis and has reflected the rule of the British in early 19th century. That is when few patriots have extended the media network(news papers) in India to educate the people about the political situations, but was a failure due to illiteracy and ignorance of the people for which there used to be a ruler for every 1000 people across the country. Even there is been an improvement in the mass media, it never reached the common people. Those few decades were considered to be the "dark era" in Indian independent history. In early 70's rebellion broke out across the country against the government's unlawful rule. Then few people took up the task of educating the people of the country and brought a big revolution in ruling where government given the new policies of freedom to mass media to educate the people about every political change in the country and right to revolt against it under the rule of Madam Indhira Gandhi, considered as the golden era of Indian development. This mass media has helped Indians to protect ourselves to be sold to other country under the rule of Rajiv Gandhi.
Present days are so much different from past in our country. We have now 70% of people who cab read news paper and 80% majors who reads news paper daily, of them which more than 70% of people have no time to think about the political status of this society and respond. So, still money and fame is ruling this country and not a patriot. In the past, that is because of illiteracy and ignorance, but now? If you think of a reason, it is ignorance mixed with foolishness. This is ruling this country now. Though the present day newspapers are headed with the worst conditions of the state and country and the worst situation we are in and about the people who are eating away our country treasure, none of then works during elections. People fall for those same worst leaders, same old words, same old plays and no change. I would like to tell you some think, in the past, the uneducated people used to elect educated to lead the nation through the best way, but now, the educated is electing uneducated, foolish and rich ..... I don't know the reason. What is this called as. As we are electing them, what do we have to call ourselves? Are we still such innocent to know the difference between good and bad that we read everyday in newspaper? Don't we have time to resolve and respond to it. Why once called idiot, stupid and a fraud is going to be elected as a leader again? Why Indians with such a big news network now is in such position? Can't ten million people choose a thousand people in a democratic independent country? What we see in the news paper is a scrap. We always miss the important part of it. We will never consider about it, even though we consider, it will end by the end of the day. 100 points hike in prices, one day big attack on government and then calm. 10 points reduction in prices just before elections, wow, such a nice government. Is it? Why? Don't you know about the day of price hike? Haven't you read the news that day? Even though you read, it is just  a matter of talk that evening, right? But you will maintain the track record of your favorite actor, and statistics of India's wins and losses for an interview or for show off.
Carry on. Gets the latest news about the price of resale news papers, it will be useful for selling them when they are filled at your home. Use it to make paper bags, at least, you can serve the environment. For now, newspaper is money and entertainment. Newspaper issued for social growth and knowledge has became an issue of entertainment.
Politics is contaminated because it is you who is the reason for not responding to the things you get to know daily.
Sports, business and film is not the news, they are just entertaining stuff and common knowledge, to which most of the Indians stick to. There is whole other part of the news which tells about you, your family and about the society that you are living in and provides a scope to change yourself and change your surrounding. Read the newspaper as a responsible citizen and a patriot and respond to it, because there are things that only you can resolve with your own wisdom. Know about your country and the people. Don't be a fool and act foolish. There is a need to know about your country and your people, cause it is your family, don't let it be ruled by the worst of your family. It is always our own choice at the end, don't let your country fall for relations and money.
