 About the Seminar The core values of democracy, secularism, and equality are the foundation of the Indian Republic. These values are deeply reflected in Indian culture and literature. Literature and cultural practices express these ideas through stories, traditions, voices, and customs, helping to shape and strengthen the idea of an equal and fair India. However, in recent times, these republican values have been weakening. Changes in Indian politics and the functioning of institutions such as the legislature, judiciary, executive, and media have affected the spirit of equality. Corruption and misleading narratives within the democratic system have reduced the strength of republican ideals in India. This seminar studies the current situation of Indian politics and its impact on different social and cultural groups. It examines the growing inequalities present in a Sovereign, Socialist, Secular, Democratic Republic like India. The seminar also looks at how certain ideas and narrati...

Features of writing media

  Writing for print media—newspapers, magazines, and newsletters—is a unique craft. Unlike the web, where readers scan and click, print readers tend to be more focused. However, because space is physically limited by the page, the writing must be incredibly disciplined. ​Here are the defining features of print media writing: ​1. The Inverted Pyramid Structure ​Most print news follows the Inverted Pyramid . This means the most "weighty" information (the Who, What, Where, When, and Why) is placed at the very beginning, with supporting details following in descending order of importance. ​ The Lead (Lede): The first paragraph must hook the reader and summarize the main point. ​ The Nut Graph: A paragraph that explains the context—why this story matters right now. ​2. Conciseness and "Space-Consciousness" ​In print, "space is money." Every column inch costs a specific amount in ink and paper. ​ Economy of Language: Writers must avoid "fluff....

S . easurement: Measured in seconds or fractions of a second (e.g., 1/200s, 2s). . Effect: ‣ Exposure: Controls the length of time light hits the sensor.
