PM : No Outside Control, Should Be Imposed Over Media, Ruling out any outside regulation of the media, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Monday said the media in the country can itself take care of the ‘ills’ like paid news and urged it to reduce sensationalism in coverage.

Noting that it is good for the country's democracy that the reach of both electronic and print media have increased substantially due to new technology, Singh hoped Indian media will be successful in checking ills like paid news.

Describing Gupta as a freedom fighter, revolutionary, journalist and entrepreneur all rolled into one, Singh said the latter was of the firm belief that the aspirations and sentiments of people of India can be expressed only through newspapers in Indian languages.

"In my opinion, there is a general consensus in our country that no outside control should be imposed over the media. But I am also of the view that the representatives of media should among themselves find a way by which objectivity and impartiality gets encouragement and sensationalism is reduced," the Prime Minister said.
