Solution
- Newspapers have to fulfil the task of providing fresh news to their readers. It is also necessary to unfold the background of an event in the news.
- At such times, newspapers have to resort to history. While reporting news in detail, reporters try to compare it with parallel events that happened in the past. The past event may be printed in a separate frame.
- Thus, the reader gets access to additional information and can get better insights about the current news.
- Newspapers print columns about historical information, appearing under headings such as ‘50 years ago’ or ‘100 years ago’, etc. Such columns are based on historical documents or written history.
- These columns provide historical information about economic, social, and political events in the past and also events of historical significance.
