ads. Also we do not have enough readers which could make us
break-even. For details you may read this article.

The Milli Gazette endeavoured these past 14 and half years to
represent Muslims in all regions of India, all sects and shades of
thought. We focused on our community's triumphs which mostly go
unreported and we also constructively addressed our failures,
shortcomings and challenges, which are usually blown up by the
insensitive "national" media.
It was with the support of readers like you that, alhamdulillah, we
entered our 15th year of publication in January. We started way back
on January 1, 2000, with great dreams and plans to put our community
on the news media map. Our plan was to slowly evolve into a weekly

Why bother about a Print Edition in this Internet age?

no undergarment, no drugs, no weight enhancing etc). Readers buy our
print edition thats how we generate revenue. Hence it is our print
edition which will generate revenues to sustain our work
