Topic: Readers' Editor

Pahalgam, Pakistan generals, pitches—what readers wrote to us in May

Quite often, I receive backhanded compliments that are actually complaints.

Inside ThePrint’s mailbox—readers bring us praise, critique, and everything in between

One minute, I am being questioned about the “Razakars and their oppressive rule”. Next, a reader demands an app for the website. Another reader from Thailand wants to contribute articles to ThePrint.

App demands, ad complaints, admiration — what’s really trending in ThePrint’s mailbox

I would urge all readers to be part of a conversation with ThePrint about its editorial content—we love feedback and learn from it.

What do NYT, WaPo, Economist, Guardian, FT write about Modi’s India? Just read ‘Global Pulse’

As India’s stock has risen — whether it is the economy, IT industry, NRI population, or India’s role as a key diplomatic counterpoint to China — the global media’s interest here has increased.

ThePrint’s election coverage isn’t about who’s winning. It’s about the mood on the ground

To learn about dynastic politics, read ThePrint stories on the Sorens’ battle in Jharkhand, poacher Veerappan’s daughter Vidya Rani in Tamil Nadu, the Ansari family in Ghazipur, and more.

Criticism, kindness, complaints—ThePrint readers don’t hold back. And we don’t want them to

Complaints are the most common feature of readers’ mail. Much of this mail is still stuck on the same issue of partisanship—this suggests that we haven't moved on from historical resentments.

How ThePrint’s reporters and photographers covered Ram temple and Ayodhya—beyond politics

For 22 January, five journalists of ThePrint were in Ayodhya, several days in advance. If this was the first draft of history in the making, we wanted to be sure we wrote it.

No internet, high propaganda—ThePrint got you Manipur stories through dictation & SMS

The difficulty faced by editors and reporters was simple in its complexity — ignorance. How do you convey the intricacies of Manipur's historical Kuki-Meitei enmity that suddenly turned violent?

Here’s what readers of ThePrint said to us in 2022—and what we are offering in 2023

I receive frequent emails accusing ThePrint of 'anti-Hindu bias' or urging us to write more about 'the Nazi politics of Hindutva'. Sometimes, readers generously concede and correct themselves.

Terrorists, burqa, automated copies, pop-up ads—there’s a lot that bugs ThePrint’s readers

Our readers are not hostile or angry. If anything, we welcome their criticism because it keeps us on our toes.

On Camera

Critical minerals are the new oil. India can’t afford to depend on China

Mineral security is no longer just an economic concern but a national security imperative, underpinning the country’s ambitions in clean energy, defence self-reliance, and advanced manufacturing.

India-US set to ink mini trade deal soon, reach understanding on agricultural & dairy products

Mini deal will likely see no cut in 10% baseline tariff on Indian exports announced by Trump on 2 April, it is learnt, but additional 26% tariffs are set to be reduced.

Not just AK-203, India & Russia to jointly manufacture AK-19 and PPK-20 for domestic use and export 

India-Russia JV is also racing to deliver 7,000 more AK-203 assault rifles by 15 Aug. These are currently being made with 50% indigenisation and this will surge to 100% by 31 December.

RSS chief Bhagwat draws the line at 75. India’s politics stares at the Modi Exception

BJP has no dynastic succession, at least not at the top. You can trace this back to Vajpayee-Advani era. This act of spotting, empowering younger talent is even more striking with the choice of BJP presidents.
