Following are the books on Media Law
Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this analysis of media law in India surveys the massively altered and enlarged legal landscape traditionally encompassed in laws pertaining to freedom of expression and regulation of communications. Everywhere, a shift from mass media to mass self-communication has put enormous pressure on traditional law models. An introduction describing the main actors and salient aspects of media markets is followed by in-depth analyses of print media, radio and television broadcasting, the Internet, commercial communications, political advertising, concentration in media markets, and media regulation. Among the topics that arise for discussion are privacy, cultural policy, protection of minors, competition policy, access to digital gateways, protection of journalists’ sources, standardization and interoperability, and liability of intermediaries. Relevant case law is considered throughout, as are various ethical codes. A clear, comprehensive overview of media legislation, case law, and doctrine, presented from the practitioner’s point of view, this book is a valuable time-saving resource for all concerned with media and communication freedom. Lawyers representing parties with interests in India will welcome this very useful guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative media law.

It happened to the author to complete the course of P.G. Diploma in Journalism and Mass Communication in 1997 June. In 2001 June, the author, along with a friend, Moturi Venkateswara Rao (Journalist) visited the Rachana Journalist College in Hyderabad and interacted with the then Principal, Dr., Govindaraju Chandradhar. Then a thought of writing a book on ‘Media Law’ flashed and started to collect some study material. But it was not materialised as he was involved in writing books for various subjects of Law Courses. Suddenly Shri Sunil Gogia, M/s. Asia Law House, Hyderabad put a proposal of writing a text book on Media Law as there were not many text books on that subject. At the same time, the author attended the two-day international Seminar on “Changing Face of India Media: What Needs to be done?” on March 21-22, 2012 at Centre for Economic and Social Studies, Hyderabad. In that Seminar, many delegates expressed the need of books on Media Laws’.
