CELEBRATING 6 YEARS OF A MHOW WEEKLY


On Sunday the 13th of January 2008, there was a celebration! It was to mark 6 years since Mr. Dinesh Solanki had brought out his first issue of ‘Priya Pathak’ in Mhow.
Mr. Prakash Hindustani from Sahara News lauded the journalist for bringing out this weekly paper successfully and more so - consistently for six whole years, never giving up even when funds were less, joking that “The best way to take revenge on your enemy is to encourage him to start a newspaper. It will drain him out forever!”
But Dinesh Solanki has taken out his 8-page weekly without fail these last six years.
There were no parties marking this Weekly’s milestones through these six years of hard work, and its believed that the 7th year is a very important year religiously as well as historically. Mr. Om Prakash Bharadwaj among others called for a party! So the journalist decided to give his friends a small party. His friends , ‘the Deepak Jaju Mitra Mandal’ instead threw a BIG party in his honour! So we have the celebration of the 13th! With over 300 guests including Mr. Tulsi Ram Silawat, Mr. Harish Trivedi, Patrakar Mr. Dholi, Mr. Yogesh Yadav among others, the last three calling this paper ‘Mhow ka Andolan’ (A Movement in Mhow)
On the 13th of January 2008, Dinesh Solanki’s received the felicitations from his ‘Dear Readers’, or ‘Priya Pathaks’.
