Work environment: The work environment at times, gets excruciating but then, again there are days when there is little to do at office. Interns at The Hindu may not be assigned much of significance apart from the daily assignments; but the prerogative lies with the intern to look for work and assist the other staff members.
Stipend: No

Loads of travelling to do within the city for the daily assignments and special stories so, not for the faint-hearted. If you have a tendency to develop travel fatigue, this internship is not recommended. Internship at The Hindu organization will be rated 8 out of 10 by me.
