vidura/vidur are perhaps the best two publications in mass media in india today. i've no doubt about the fact that any media student/ researcher would gain immeasurably by making it a must for his/her research. m.a. mass comm. students particularly would profit prodigiuosly by accessing the journals. moreover, for those appearing in ugc's net test, both the journals are of profuse assistance. meanwhile, both the journals' contents have prodigiuosly improved of late. my suggestion is that pii should consider making its periodicity more frequent than it's at present. i would recommed journals as must reading for all media teachers also. more power to vidura/vidur.--m.r.dua

Press institute is doing good service for the uplifting professional skills of journalists and creating awareness about media issues through training workshops. It’s publication Vidura helps media community to introspect and follow the basic principles of journalism. By highlighting the stories of marginalized people in Grassroots, you are filling the gap created by mainstream media. Wishing you all the best. GK Chatterji New Delhi
