[Goanet-News] RAJAN NARAYAN IS DEAD... LONG LIVE SUJOY GUPTA

[Pen Pricks]

 In many ways, it resembled the passing of a baton.
Rajan Narayan's journalism had yellowed so much, that it could not rot any
further. Even putrification has its limits, you see.
Once you are over and done with vanity journalism, blackmail, extortion, you
cannot go much further. You then end up refining your techniques. For
example, where earlier you would have bulldozed some dumb fart of a
politician into getting you a flat surreptitiously, now you coax the builder
lobby and the government to gift you one publicly.
So Rajan had reached a somewhat of a stagnation point.
But a metamorphosis was around the corner.
Sujoy Gupta walked into the Gomantak Times.
Sujoy turned around the GT, much in the same way Rajan handled Herald in his
early days. An energetic layout and smart writing really made the edition
look smarter than the rest of the pack
