对1996年1月至12月期间在印度各地出版的英文报纸中有关科学技术的新闻进行了分析。结果显示，报纸版面中核科技所占比例最大，其次是国防、空间研究和天文学。《先锋报》、《印度教徒报》和《印度时报》总共花了大约23%的版面来报道科学和技术。大多数关于政策问题的文章(97%)的来源来自印度国内，而对于其他故事，包括美国和英国的外国来源也有贡献。许多项目都有照片和图表等插图作为佐证。研究表明，平均而言，印度报纸用在与科学技术有关的文章和故事上的篇幅远远不到总印刷版面的1%。
News items on science and technology in English-language newspapers published in different parts of India during January-December 1996 were analyzed. Results indicate that the greatest proportion of newspaper space was devoted to nuclear science and technology, followed by defense, space research, and astronomy. The Pioneer, The Hindu, and The Times of India were the newspapers that together devoted about 23 percent of the total space to items on science and technology. The sources for most of the articles (97 percent) on policy issues originated from within India, while for other stories foreign sources, including those from the United States and the United Kingdom, also contributed. Many of the items were supported by illustrations such as photographs and diagrams. The study indicates that, on average, Indian newspapers devoted far less than one percent of the total printed space to articles and stories related to science and technology.
