Zalen
Read full descriptionHide full description
Started in the year 2004, ZALEN meaning ‘Freedom’ is the largest circulated secular, vernacular (Mizo language) newspaper published on Sundays in Mizoram, North East India. It would not be blunt to state that daily newspapers in Mizoram do not publish on Sundays, thus making ZALEN the only Sunday newspaper published on Sundays. Due to the unique system we have developed ZALEN has had an exponential growth since it's inception. Our print edition is distributed to many parts of Mizoram. Being an independent newspaper we do not possess unfair leanings and malpractices of sort. The aim of ZALEN is to serve reliable and informative news to the reader. Being the only Sunday paper in Mizoram, we have an incredibly high readership intensity. For this reason, many brands and businesses who wish to reach a large audience choose to advertise in ZALEN. Busy weekday schedule means readers tend to overlook many advertising materials whereas on Sundays, they have time to sit back, relax, and read the whole paper from cover to back. Packages tailored to your needs, goals, and budget are available for both print and digital editions.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: K at every 9 days against Zalen's every 3 weeks. Zalen's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
