VERANCULAR PRESS AND PUNJAB CRISIS 1978-1984
This book provides a thoughtful analysis of three popular local newspapers from Jalandhar, Punjab - Ajit, Punjab Kesari and Nawan Zamana - and their coverage of major issues and events from 1978 to 1984. As one of the few academic works examining vernacular press during Punjab's turbulent period, it presents a rare behind-the-scenes view into how different newspapers reported on the sensitive developments through their own ideological lenses. The author aims to understand the role and impact of regional media by comparing their reporting on the complex mix of religious, political and social factors that ultimately led to the tragic events of 1984. Scholars and readers interested in modern Punjab history and the relationship between regional journalism and local politics will find this work a valuable reference from an important period that continues shaping the region.
