Direction(9-18): Read the following paragraph and answer: Edmunde Burke called the

press the Fourth Estate of the realm. I think he did not use this title for the Press thoughtlessly

as social ruling group or class. The three Estates or Realms (in England) Lords Spiritual (i.e.,

the Bishops in the House of Lords), the 'temporal, (i.e. other Lords) and Commons, i. e., the

common people). The Press has been rightly called the Fourth Estate as it also. constitutes a

ruling group or class like the Lords and Commons. It cannot be denied in a free country that

the Press exercises good deal of influence in shaping public opinion and pointing out the

weaknesses or defects of society or of Government, and 'in general bringing to light all those

good or bad things in society which would have otherwise remained unnoticed. The power is

not limited or put under any check. The Press, instead of, being controlled by anyone controls

life and thought of a nation: Hence the Press constitutes an Estate by itself.

Obviously. thus power which the Press in an:)' country wields depends upon the number of

newspaper readers. The opinions . and comments of newspapers can influence. the life of a

nation only when they are read, by People. Reading in turn, requires that the general mass of

people should be educated. Thus, the spread of education determines the extent of the

newspapers. Where readers are few; newspapers must necessarily be few. Their influence, in

that case can extend only to a small minority of population. In a country like India, the

percentage of literacy is very low and the standard of journalism is n9t very high. So Press has

to play the role of a teacher here.
