Wide coverage. Excellent printing quality. Professionally managed. Brand name developed over years, stands for "race” and not "religion.” Shortcomings are: Highly partisan editorials/cover pages and matter. Must restore balance and work towards uniting the community.

Information on our Zoroastrian community, objectively.

Unbiased and frank outlook. Please keep it up the same way.

A nice journal worth reading and highly awaited in our household. If possible it should include inspirational articles highlighting the life of Parsi stalwarts in different fields.

Too focused on issues within India. Too much focus on past achievements and not on current achievements. I would like to see more coverage of what is happening in North America, Europe and Australia so that you truly represent all Parsis.

It’s very informative about the achievements of our community members.

Your strengths are global coverage, unbiased and neutral publication, progressive and practical editorials. You need to penetrate Parsi colonies/baugs to counter narrow minded and unZoroastrian views published by the Bombay Parsi Punchayet in their publication. There is a need for articles on Iranian history and Parsis in India since Sanjan, and to edit letters/article from readers to delete personal attacks/references and to stick to facts, information and views.

Your strengths are publishing current topics in time and being regular in dispatching the publication.

Basic facts are stated, opinionated journalism is avoided. I would like a focus on achievers, true stories, positive and progressive thinkers. You could dedicate a page for this.

You courageously put into print with veracity issues which haunt our small community, which other publications avoid doing. There seems to be a dearth of interviews with prominent personalities.

Progressive.
