Here in Chennai, we have, published here:

- four major national dailies in English
- three major local language dailies in the local language, Tamil
- three major national financial dailies

and innumerable free weeklies, mainly focusing on specific neighborhoods

I guess newspapers are alive and well here in India

Cheers
Jayanand
