tamil hindu newspaper

Address: Chennai, Tamil Nadu, 600021

What an idiotic circulation dept. You have! When my hindu tamil subscription period ends, you never informed me. Should you not inform me at least 3 or 4 weeks in advance?

While searching your website https://pay.hindu.com, there is no sign or display of tamil hindu newspaper! What sort of business you are running?

I hope this complaint will not be read or replied by your circulation dept.
