The Hindu is definitely among the best english language news papers of India....apart from The Statesman published from Kolkata, Delhi, Bhubaneshwar & Siliguri(WB) which dosent find a mention in your review list. Wonder why ???!!!!
Both papers are institutions by themselves although they may not be the most circulated.
An appeal:Try to stop, reading the TOI one will improve ones english and also will get quality news rather than too much of filth which is being dished by the Times Of India.
The Hindu has a good collection of news items from various parts of India and the articles seemed to be weel researched and written which is not the case with the Times Of India.
