In view of the future, the media should be the people’s representatives and the harmonious link of the society. Newspapers have been functioning as the voice of the people since before independence. Ambedkar and Gandhiji also started newspapers to reach people. In today’s changed times, the nature of newspapers has changed. Students should read daily newspapers to gain knowledge. I was very interested in reading newspapers as a child. I was interested enough to wait and read the magazine. "Reading newspaper is helpful to get hold of the language," he said.

Media arena for maintaining the health of the society:-

Retired lecturer Bhuvaneshwari Hegade spoke at the dialogue program held as part of the press day.

Speaking of which, the media is the savior of the society. Social responsibility is an important responsibility of journalists. Do not exaggerate anything. Journalists should maintain restraint and not succumb to pressure. Journalists should function as the link of a healthy society. Journalists should develop a sense of humor in their lives. By this the stress of daily life can be reduced and health can be maintained," he said.
