Bangalore: Mrs. Shobhana Bharatia, the boss of the Birla-owned Hindustan Times, said here on Sept. 15 that the circulation of all dailies had risen. from 2.25 crore in 1998 to 2.5 crore in 1999, She was addressing the Indian Newspaper Society convention (PTI-Aisan Age, Sept. 16, 2000).
It means out of our over 100-crore population only 2.5 crore people read any daily paper. Even the combined circulation of all publications, including periodicals, is just 13 crore-a peanut.
In other words, the newspaper-reading population is just 2.5%. Of this the more mischievous English “national” toilet paper circulation is much less may be 1%.
Thank god, over 80% of Indians are still pure, uncontaminated by this brahminical poison propaganda.
There is a hope only in this 80% people who don’t touch any paper
