Zou daily launched (LAMKA) A monthly Zou journal, Zogam Today has taken a fresh leap today by switching it into a daily paper during a solemn function at Zogal Hall here.

The one-year old journal was edited by S Nengkhanlun, the incumbent secretary of MHJU and its conversion into a daily has made the journal, the first daily paper in Zou dialect.

But like any other local dailies here, the management has opted to identify the paper as an independent daily rather than confining it only with the Zou community.

Zogam Today's launch has raised the number of daily papers published from the district to six.

The other papers are � Manipur Express, The Lamka Post, Hmansawnna Thar, Nisin Thuhiltu and Sikni-Eng.
