if u r interested in getting the real news and to the point and no extra spices added to it, then the best newspaper in INDIA is "THE HINDU".
Q) why i think so?
ANS)
1)Citing a simple example, then ABHISHEK_AISH wedding took place, the "TOI" had full 3-4 pages about their marriage for about a week. but "THE HINDU" gave a small column on the wedding day, to the news.
2) TOI is not standardised, in GUJARAT edition u will see some other news, in DELHi edition u will see other news, no standardisation at all, whereas in "THE HINDU", the paper is standardizes to a greater extend.
