Abstract
India is known as one of the most successful democracies in the world indeed, and no doubt the credit goes to its public opinion safeguarded and represented by the media. The earliest record on the freedom of press/media can be traced to the Rig Veda where it finds its expression as “Aano Bhadra kartavo vishwatah” meaning- Let noble thoughts come from all directions.
