Request to our contributors for opinion pages
SINCE some radical changes have been done to the lay out of the opinion pages, it entails changes in the word limit of all the elements to be accommodated. According to the changed layout, no article above 900 words can findz a place. However, this is the maximum limit and we may probably not be able to accommodate more than one article of this length. The contributions that will now find space in the opinion pages will be ranged between 500 to 600 words. All this has been done to accommodate more opinion and invite more readership. We hope you, as our esteemed contributors, will cooperate with us in making this change a change for good. We highly value your contributions and would always like to see this relationship grow stronger by the day.
Though this word limit is to be followed strictly, there might be some exceptions, depending upon the situation and the significance of the topic under discussion. Taking a decision on this will be the prerogative of the editorial.
Thank you for your contributions and looking forward to your cooperation.
