  Marathi:Big Newspaper Are Elephants, Robin Jeffrey
Though Maharashtra in the 1990s was India’s most urbanised major state with 39% of the population living in cities, one-third of those urbanites lived in Mumbai.
Maharashtra appeared as India’s most industrialised state, but most of that industry was concentrated in Mumbai and its immediate neighbourhood.
Darda’s son, Vijay Jawaharlal Darda (b.1950) became the managing director in the 1990s.17 It is perhaps not fanciful to suggest that the readiness of the Pawar family to acquire Sakal in 1985 may have had something to do with the advantages that ownership of Lokmat appeared to have given the Darda family.

 Bird flu may hit Maharashtra again : HindustanTimes.com   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Experts have warned of another bird flu outbreak in Maharashtra after monsoons due to the unscientific disposal of chicken culled in the first episode of the dreaded virus outbreak in February.
Maharashtra witnessed an outbreak of bird flu in the Nandurbar and Jalgaon regions, giving a body blow to the once booming poultry industry.
If experts of the technical committee set up by the Maharashtra government are to be believed, unscientific disposal of composting poultry litter will lead to spread of the dreaded avian influenza (H5N1) virus in the same region after the rains.

At a time an increasing number of debt-ridden farmers in Maharashtra are committing suicide, two farmers—Vivek Mahajan and Maya Lambat—are, in their own little way, trying to ensure that the spate of suicides abates.
Mahajan and Lambat were among 80-odd farmers from Maharashtra who were awarded by the state government for their work in the field of agriculture at a ceremony at Raj Bhawan in south Mumbai on Friday.
While Mahajan was honoured with the Udyan Pandit award for outstanding work in the field of horticulture, Lambat, an agriculturist from Chikhlapur in Nagpur district, won the Jijamata Krishibhushan award for her work in the field of vermiculture.

Interestingly, the Maharashtra Times publisher spoke about his "freedom of speech" and "freedom of commercial speech", citing Sections 19 1 (a) and (b) of the Constitution.
The Times report quoting only its own management served to underline the old dictum that the freedom of press is limited to the man who owns one.
We believe the Times has little time to go into battle now, even as it is gearing up to launch a new "serious paper" for Mumbai and bracing for attack from the North.

Some time back, I had the opportunity of hearing Kumar Ketkar (currently chief editor of Loksatta and formerly editor of Maharashtra Times and other leading newspapers) speak at a private function.
An important point that he stressed quite elaborately was the manner in which Marathi was fast losing relevance in contemporary times in Maharashtra in general and Mumbai in particular.
