Article

All news stories or events that are covered by the correspondents are presented in the form of articles with a catchy headline to arouse the interest of the readers. If the story is about a natural disaster, a court case, or an important meet taking place to discuss some important social or environmental issues, the article necessarily has timeliness about it as it is time bound and has to carry facts and information that is fresh and has taken place just now.
