The Hindu, India’s leading news daily is completing 125 years of sheer journalism. It has put together a special supplement that celebrates the history and the culture this newspaper. Before you jump into the ocean of these articles check out Editor-in-chief N.Ram’s editorial. He is one of my most favorite journalists.

Excerpts from R.K.Narayan’s short stories published in Hindu is also put together as Malgudi in Madras. Take a spin.

If you are a south indian, I am sure The Hindu has played a role in your growing up. It is the only newspaper that gives me the feel of a newspaper. I have many times tried to read other newspapers but after that I come back and read Hindu. ‘Cause only then the feeling of complete comes back. It’s an awesome feeling to read Hindu every morning as I sip the filter coffee.

Shobha De once wrote in her column that The Hindu has a bad online presence due to it’s lack of design in the online version. Accepted. With Ram getting promoted as Editor-in-Chief, he promised that he would try to improve their online presence. I hope they would rectify this in the near future.
