The concept behind this age-old saying is that without intelligence, human beings will be no better than unintelligent animals. Journalists, historians and scholars, individuals who are credited with giving knowledge to humanity. They involve journalists who provide us with our full knowledge of current affairs and events around the world. With the boom in information and communications technology over the last two decades, the world of media has changed drastically. Today, Mass media provides 24-hour news and updates us daily with news and information from even the most distant areas of the world. In a country like India, Indian media, a powerful entity, has been defined as the Fourth Pillar of Democracy. Being one of the pillars of India's democratic nation, Indian media has a huge responsibility to make the nation because it affects the political leanings of people and therefore enables them to make the right decision when choosing a government. Media plays a crucial role in the democratic life of the country's citizens as it keeps people informed about the socio-economic and political state of affairs'. At this juncture this paper examines the present position of Indian Journalism. Keywords: Media, Journalists, Democracy, Government, Affairs of State. 1 Vidisha Verma, An analysis of journalism in modern India, retrieved from https://blog.ipleaders.in/ananalysis- of-journalism-in-modern-india, visited on 1311 April 2022 Page: 1 Volume IV Issue III I ISSN: 2582-8878
