THE INDIAN DREAMER

The 62nd World Newspaper Congress, the 16th World Editors Forum and Info Services Expo 2009 will take place at the Hyderabad International Convention Center (HICC) from 22nd to 25th March 2009. Its a great opportunity for India to prove its worth in the rising world. India is undoubtedly world's biggest democracy, where the press is not only free and fiercely independent - but also undergoing extraordinary growth.

India now ranks internationally as the second largest press market, after China, with almost 99 million copies sold daily - an increase in circulation of 36 % over the past five years. Well over 200 million people read newspapers every day and 19 of the world's top 100 selling titles are to be found in the country.
