INDORE: The regulator on the space of telecom, Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), will be holding an open house discussion here on Thursday. The topic of the event is, 'Issues relating to media ownership', said an official spokesperson of the event. Registration for the event will begin sharp at 9.30am. Conference for the stakeholders/industry representatives will start at 10am. Interested stakeholders/industry representatives are likely to participate in the conference in huge number. The consultation paper on the subject is available on the TRAI website 'www.trai.gov.in' under the heading 'Consultations', added the spokesperson.

The media plays an important role in the democratic process of a country, more so in today's technologically fast moving environment. Its inherent ability to reach the masses implies that it has a vital role in building (and influencing) public opinion and creating awareness. Media also plays a vital role in delineating the economic, political, social and cultural characteristics of a country, says the paper on the subject by TRAI. Thus, media pluralism is a cornerstone of democracy and this fact should be reflected in the plurality of independent and autonomous media and in diversity of media content. Print, television, radio and new media such as internet are the most popular media, adds the paper.
