Abstract :

North-eastern people consider them different from the mainland India. The reason behind that they are always mistreated by mainland India due to their looks, dressings and more about the culture they follow. They are given different names such as Chinki, Nepalese, Chinese, and Bhutanese etc. due to their looks and it really raises a question mark to their identity. If we look into the situation in the capital of India, Delhi, which is considered as the city of civilized and educated people and such kind of discrimination, is not expected from the citizens of Delhi and moreover the problem is more critical in Delhi. In this situation the role of media becomes more important as it is the fourth pillar of democracy. This made the researchers curious as it is quite important to study the part played by media in coverage of North east people’s issues and problems. This paper tries to analyze how many news items have been published about North east issues of Delhi and NCR in two major national dailies in the month of June 2015.
