The consumption of news through digital medium is increasing and one has to adapt to that, said IT Minister K.T. Rama Rao while launching the redesigned edition of The Hindu on its 144th Foundation Day in Hyderabad on Tuesday.
“My father introduced me to newspapers. He inculcated in me the habit of reading the paper. But I have not been able to accomplish the same task as far as my son is concerned. I have tried, but he is more into Instagram, Twitter and other social media platforms,” said Mr.Rama Rao, sharing his experience as a news consumer with The Hindu journalists assembled on the occasion.
“During my college days, when my father wanted me to become a civil servant, he would ask me to read The Hindu, Competition Success Review and some other journals. I became a voracious reader and now read 13 newspapers daily, which takes up a big chunk of my time,” he shared.
