It was a packed year for the media. From assembly polls in seven states, the election of the president and vice-president, the churn in the opposition space in Bihar and Maharashtra, to extreme weather events, significant verdicts such as the one on EWS quota, India’s G-20 presidency, the boundary standoff, and Neeraj Chopra’s javelin gold medal – many events dominated the news cycle, some more than others.
The media landscape, meanwhile, saw major developments such as the takeover of NDTV by industrialist Gautam Adani, and the amendments to the IT rules.
