Subscribers’ comments
Subscribers offer their views on Parsiana’s strengths and weaknesses on the subscription renewal form returned to us. With their consent we publish their comments so that their thoughts may be known to a wider readership. Unless another name is affixed to the remarks, Parsiana assumes they are written by the subscriber whose name appears on the form.
Parsiana’s strengths: Very good magazine for Parsis and Zoroastrians. Shortcomings: More editing required in reports on events in baugs and anjumans. They are not earth shattering. Do we have to see pictures of bawas in every issue? None of them are photogenic. If the pictures are not there you will have more space to print the poems of Armin Motashaw Dutia instead of squeezing them into the Readers’ Forum column.

The magazine is very informative for all classes of the Zoroastrian community.

Parsiana’s strengths: Frank, unbiased reporting. It is informative and provides wide coverage. Shortcomings: More pages devoted to advertisements than reading material. Parsiana must be made into a weekly periodical.

Parsiana’s strengths: International coverage in detail with pictures. Shortcomings: Though named Parsiana by its founder Dr Pesi Warden, to enhance the interest of Parsis, the magazine covers a lot of anti-Parsi issues. Please protect the interests of Parsis.
