MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN PUNE

Regional press circulation is historically dominated by Marathi-language dailies and heavily influenced by a single major publishing conglomerate, the Sakal Media Group. The flagship publication of this market is Sakal, a Marathi broadsheet founded in 1932 by Dr N. B. Parulekar that remains the most widely read regional newspaper. The same media company also produced Sakaal Times, an English-language daily aimed at the local metropolitan readership, which shares the market with independent titles like the Marathi News Daily.
