Summary: This film outlines in a dramatic manner the evolution and progress of the Press in India, tracing its history from the early days of Moghul Court Chronicles to our own times. It shows how news was transmitted by pigeons and relays of couriers before days of the telegraphy and the wireless. It then depicts how the thousands of newspapers in Indian today are produced, the one-man journal of the small district town and the mighty dailies and weeklies of the big cities, printed on the latest machinery in tens of thousands every day. The film not only stresses the importance of Newspapers in modern life but takes the public behind the scenes and acquaints them with all that goes into the making of a modern newspaper.
