To reach a reader
A former associate editor with the Times of India, Jug Suraiya writes two regular columns for the print edition, Jugular Vein, which appears every Friday, and Second Opinion, which appears on Wednesdays. The sender of the mail wrote that while visiting a Jain temple in a small village in Bihar’s Nalanda district, he had met a young boy, Sanket, a student at a local school and the son of a temple worker, who had shown a keen interest in improving his English language skills. The Delhi resident editor of TOI suggested that an online subscription to the paper would solve the problem, and give the young reader access to all 50-odd editions of the paper. I’ve just received a mail that the Patna edition of TOI has managed, for the first time ever, to get an English language newspaper to reach Sanket’s home.
