RAJYA SABHA
The Directorate of
Advertising and Visual Publicity (DAVP) has planned to step up
the advertisements in a year to small and medium newspapers from
the level of 3 to 9.
In the meeting of
the Consultative Committee of MPs attached to the Ministry of
Information and Broadcasting, it has been decided that a small
group of members from amongst the members of the Consultative
Committee may like to tour and assess the ground realities that
prevail in regard to various newspapers, particularly in areas
like Delhi, Bhopal, Lucknow and Jaipur. A State-wise list of newspapers
has also been provided to the members of the Consultative Committee
for their reference.
This information
was given by Minister of Information and Broadcasting, Smt. Sushma
Swaraj in written reply to a question in Rajya Sabha today.
