Reaching out to children

I wish to congratulate the Publishers of The Hindu for their novel idea of reaching out the daily to the school children in an effort to inculcate and spread the reading habit among them at an affordable price of Re.1 as against the stand-price of Rs.3.25. The publishers have already roped in many a school in the city and the mission thus has been most successful. While The Hindu has played a stellar role in the field of education, its current mission of `catch them young' speaks volumes of the daily's desire to upgrade its role further.
