Although Journalism education made its beginning in the undivided India, around early 1940s, the subject has traveled its long journey facing innumerable trials and tribulations. Though partition was a setback to its progress, but it soon commenced its onward march along with the rapid expansion of the industry in India. Several newspapers and magazines have come into being. Also, electronic media – television and radio have surged forward.
