    ABSTRACT: in India Till 1991 There Was Only One Television Channel

    ABSTRACT: In India till 1991 there was only one television channel –Doordarshan, the public service broadcaster. With the opening up of the Indian economy in early 1990s enabled the entry of private broadcasters in India. The number of television channels has proliferated manifold. By 2005 India had more than 200 digital channels. The number of television channels has grown from around 600 in 2010 to 800 in 2012.This includes more than 400 news and current affairs channel. Technological changes have caused intense competition in news and general entertainment channels, as a result of which there is growth in regional and niche channels. The growth of cable and satellite television and direct to home television services has continued to drive television as the most preferred medium among advertisers. Broadcasters are also tapping into online and mobile media to increase their revenue. This paper seeks to study the impact of privatisation on media policy of the Government of India and how it has evolved various institutional mechanisms to deal with the growth of television as the medium to study the effect of privatisation and convergence on media regulations as television is the most powerful medium. The visual images transmitted by television reach large section of the Indian population irrespective of linguistic and cultural differences. GROWTH OF THE TELEVISION INDUSTRY IN INDIA: Television began in India in 1959 as an educational project supported by the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) and the Ford Foundation. Television was based on the model of a public broadcasting system prevalent in many countries of Europe.

    www.Asia Times.US NRI Global Edition Email: [email protected] September 2016 Vol 7, Issue 9 Zakir Naik: What did I do to earn the tags of ‘Dr Terror’, ‘Hate Monger’? Islamic scholar Dr. Zakir Naik wrote an open letter to Indians called ‘Five Questions and an Appeal’ where he lamented about being targeted and labeled a ‘terror preacher’ in India. In the letter, Naik said, “Of 150 countries where I’m respected and my talks are welcomed, I’m being called a terrorist influencer in my own country. What an irony. Why now, when I’ve been doing the same thing for over 25 years?”. Naik, 51, is an Islamic preacher, who founded the Islamic Research Foundation in 1991 when he started Dawah or religious preaching. His lectures mostly revolve around how Islam is superior to all other faiths. While he claims to be an advocate of interfaith dialogue, his preaching’s’ reinforce all the stereotypes which exist against Muslims. Following reports that one of the militants of Dhaka terror attack was inspired by Naik’s misinterpretations of Islam, there are growing demand for strict action against him. In the letter, Naik asks why he has become the enemy number one for the State and Central government. “It has been over two months since the ghastly terror attack in Dhaka, and over one month since I’ve been asking myself what exactly have I done to become the enemy number one of the media as well as the State and Central Gov- ernment,” wrote Naik. × and justice.

    Chapter -3 Secularism in Modern Indian Thought: Rabindranath Tagore, Swami Vivekananda and Mahatma Gandhi

    Chapter -3 Secularism in Modern Indian Thought: Rabindranath Tagore, Swami Vivekananda and Mahatma Gandhi This chapter is an attempt to bring out the secular thoughts that are weaved in the writings of Rabindranath Tagore, Swami Vivekananda and Mahatma Gandhi. In the last two hundred years, Hinduism has been greatly influenced by the impact of the West. It has not produced any really new doctrine but it has presented its old thought in a new light. These new developments are partly the result of the influence of Christianity but not entirely new. Indian society has undergone considerable changes. Since the advent of the modern age and it is only natural that this should result in certain changes of ideas. the development is connected with the rise of a new middle class. The first period of Western impact which covers the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries is characterized by considerable conversion of Hindus to Christianity. Hindu religious leaders seem to have been at a loss in face of this challenge and little attempt was made to prevent conversion. However this period did not last very long and in fact the number of conversions seems to have been fairly small in view of the heavy impact of the west on India. This does not mean that Christianity had no effect on Hinduism . The Hindu leaders were forced to carry out considerable reform of religious practices and to revive many of the old traditions of Hindu thought which was not in practice. Though this chapter mainly deals with the secular thoughts of Rabindranath Tagore, Swami Vivekananda and Mahatma Gandhi but here the thoughts of Raja Rammohan Roy are added as it acts like a connecting thread to the former thinkers.
