Abstract: Small and local newspapers play a crucial yet underexamined role in shaping democratic communication in India. This study analyses how small Hindi newspapers construct news narratives, articulate editorial positions and facilitate reader participation within a constrained and localized media environment. Using a tri-layered discourse analytical framework the research examines news content, editorials and Letters to the Editor across a stratified sample of 38 small Hindi newspapers from 19 Indian states based on year-long monthly sampling. The findings reveal a dominant glocal news flow in which international, national and hyper-local stories coexist, while regional or state level reporting remains largely absent. Editorials emerge as key sites of ideological framing, oscillating between watchdog journalism and political mobilization under conditions of limited editorial autonomy. The Letters to the Editor section, though potentially constituting a micro-public sphere is unevenly institutionalized and marked by restricted access and gendered underrepresentation. The study positions small Hindi newspapers as normatively ambivalent democratic institutions expanding access to public discourse while reproducing structural constraints and contributes to debates on vernacular journalism, media decentralization and democratic accountability.
Keywords: Small Hindi newspapers, Local journalism, Editorial discourse, Letters to the Editor, Media and democracy.
