On 25th July, 2016 Parsi Times’ popular columnist, Ruby Lilaowala was invited by the Lioness Club of Cuffee Parade to address its members about ‘Journalism in India’ at the PVM Gymkhana. Covering important aspects, Ruby explained that the press is broadly divided into the National Press, Regional Press, Local Press and Community Press, having different patterns of ownership and with different goals and objectives. Elaborating further, she spoke about the various ‘interest specific’ magazines for health, beauty, glamour, food, photography, travel, pets, jewelry and film magazines in numerable languages. Journalism in India, being nothing less than 200 years old, with the oldest paper being the ‘Mumbai Samachar’ (192 years old), is still going strong. Ruby also explained to the audience the social and political objectives of the national and regional press, as well as the scope and duties of the Press Council of India. The lecture concluded with an interesting question and answer session.
