The Indian Institute of Mass Communication (IIMC) is introducing its one-year Post Graduate Diploma course in Marathi Journalism at its Western Regional Centre here today. Coinciding with the death anniversary of Lokmanya Tilak, one of the pillars of Marathi journalism, the inaugural function of the course will be held at the IIMC in New Delhi, tomorrow.
