 By JOBIN KAIYAMPARAMBIL ISSAC . The role of media in a democratic system has been widely debated. India has the largest democracy in the world and media has a powerful presence in the country. In recent times Indian media has been subject to a lot of criticism for the manner in which they have disregarded their obligation to social responsibility. Dangerous business practices in the field of media have affected the fabric of Indian democracy.

But only recently have these effects become practically tangible and invisible. The classical media have lost their monopoly in many ways, their role as gatekeeper. They are no longer the only ones sending information to a large-scale audience - now everyone can post news. The media is no longer alone in controlling what information goes to the general public - everyone can get information from a wide variety of sources.    Journalists are no longer even the only ones who solely determine what news is important and widespread - this is what the algorithms of companies like Google or Facebook are now doing.    And as if the loss of meaning, power, and influence weren't bad enough.
