So far, so good. The Hindu is working on building a stronger response system and taking steps to address most of the complaints. While there's room for growth, their efforts show a positive trend in customer support. We hope The Hindu will keep up the work and continue to help more customers with their concerns even better 🤝

deviation from the traditional stand

That is what reader's expectation. I do not think this paper is meant for reflecting one person's wish he maybe one of the owner. Just give the news. Donot make opinion. That is reader's job...

use of vocabulary which deems as being insensitive

Address: Dakshina Kannada, Karnataka, 576104

This is with regard to the repeated usage of the word 'killed"instead of"martyred"in your daily edition of the newspaper. For the past few days, it has been observed that insensitive reference has been given to the security forces, who fight day and night sacrificing being with their family, all leisure and constantly living under the hail of gunfire, with the usage of the statement"40 crpf jawans killed"instead of"40 crpf jawans martyred"....
