#my gov, Promotion of reading habits need the availability of books too. In this era of digitization this is not a big problem in cities and urban India. But in case of rural India availability of good academic and other books is a major problem. Govt itself can set up an e-commerce portal only for books with the help of Postal department. It can help people from any corner of India to get books as the reach of India Post is large. Govt should make use of its own dept than using private plyrs.

#NationalBookPromotionPolicy: Govt should start a portal for National Book Promotion policy. Self publishing wing also should be incorporated in it. Many templates of cover as well as page layouts should be included. A can download them and design his book with content and uploaded to it. Uploaded book can be verified by experts. Govt can print it through POD and distribute the book through online stores. Eg: partridge publishing. This is the only way to save new writer

National book promotion policy should be encouraged by creating and increasing the interest of people in reading. The library at all places of India should have arrangement and link with other libraries over India, so that any book can be available for reading from any library in India. Online accessibility of book for people from any where.There should be a mass programme every year for reading collectively like "Reading India" in which all people including school and library, reading the books

#DraftNationalBookPromotionPolicy : A writer is the most cheated individual in society. Nobody pays him well. Everyone needs him always. Whether it is cinema or drama or anything. No publisher pays him royalty correctly. This is why books should be printed with Print on demand technology and distributed online. E-books and kindles can also be developed. A book published under this scheme should automatically get copyrighted.

#DraftNationalBookPromotionPolicy : Dear PM, Govt should start a self publishing wing for young writers. (Like partridge publishing of penguin books.). Govt can fix a fee for designing as well as ISBN number. Govt can print them using Print on demand technology and distribute the same through all online e-com websites like flipcart, amazon etc. Writers will get exact royalty. No need of storing space is required. Writers will also market the books. This is the only way to save new writer.

#DraftNationalBookPromotionPolicy : Today, every public library has become a dumping place for huge publishers. They collect money from writers to publish their books and most of the copies, with silly content, will be dumped in libraries. This situation is really sad. But, no go! There should be an apex body for selection of good books for libraries.

#DraftNationalBookPromotionPolicy : Every school should be converted into a cultural complex of that particular panchayat ward. School library should be converted to a community library. Book reading should be included in the assignments of students and grades also should be allotted. This will surely improve the reading habits of indian children.
