In which year was Dinamalar founded?
- A.1947
- B.1951
- C.1956
- D.1962
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 1951. The Vice President noted in his address that Dinamalar was founded in that year with the resolve to serve as a touchstone of truth, and the same address places the paper in its 75th year of publication, which fits the founding year. Option A is the most tempting wrong answer, because candidates instinctively attach the year of Independence to the founding of old Indian newspapers. Options C and D are nearby years placed to test whether the exact figure has been learnt. A useful way to lock the item is to hold the pair together: founded in 1951 and being honoured in its 75th year with a commemorative postage stamp released by the Vice President in Chennai. Remember the founder's name as well, T. V. Ramasubbaiyer, since a question can be framed on the person rather than the year, and note that the Chennai Regional Director of the Department of Posts, Major Manoj, attended the function.
