The truth is that most of Indian dailies are not fit for reading any science related news or even news for that matter. With the exception of "The Hindu", which is the only daily I find professional, without bias to any ideology/organisation and mostly free of grammatical, spelling and other errors.

"The Hindu", which is the only daily I find professional, without bias to any ideology/organisation 'The Hindu' is generally considered pro-CPM (Communist Party) hereabouts (South India).

  Indeed. http://www.thehindu.com/news/states/andhra-pradesh/article2517885.ece http://www.thehindu.com/news/states/andhra-pradesh/article25... A leading light of the Telangana Armed Struggle, a first generation communist leader and veteran trade unionist Raj Bahadur Gaur passed away here on Friday morning. ... The CPI and several other organisations mourned the death of the communist leader who enjoyed wide respect.

  The editor is a former communist and the editorials reflect his pro-CPM views, but on the whole, the articles are mostly neutral and reported in a matter of fact way.

  It is more like center leftist. Although politicians of CPM do feature on editorials

    I wish it were true. It is more than 'center leftist', it has a blatant left bias which even clouds the reporting. I was an ardent reader of 'The Hindu' but stopped reading it after its coverage on issues like: 'Nandigram', 'US India Nuclear deal'. IIRC it used to carry reports about Chavez hailing him as great leader, but reports from other newspaper doesn't seem to imply the same. So I stopped reading it all together. It is sad that are no good English dailies (in India) which concentrate on issues that matter to people. Much of them don't carry any detailed reports, focus on celebrity gossip and/or are blatantly biased.
