We recoginse that press freedom is in the hands of journalists and give them support whenever it is needed. We cannot rely on the state, nor on publishers, to preserve our freedom. The state has political and publishers have commercial imperatives. The threats come from commercial as much as political directions on behalf of journalists, the Journalist Association of India (JAI) makes representations and lobbies the government in defence of press freedom whenever issues likely to threaten it arise.
